Dang, She’s good at this!

Rach? Rachel Dolezal, dat you?

“Dressed up”? “Wearing”? This looks like a Photoshop job. I don’t think she did shit besides pose for the original photo. The 2 is generous to the extreme.

Copied is a bit generous - she photoshopped her face into the original pictures and looks like she fixed her lips on occasion.

Bianca perfectly expresses my feeling about this.

i wish the twitterverse would respond by shopping her on to different things like perhaps a barboons arse

This wasn’t needed. All the pictures exist. She dressed up in blackface and then posed in pictures that already fucking existed.

Yes, but then she wouldn't be proving the point that these African women are SO beautiful that even a white woman would be willing to look like them for a second-and on the Internet for all the world to see, no less.

She needs to raise awareness for African wildlife next!

The original women have such emotion and power in their expressions—this lady is a dead-eyed, flat-faced nothing.

What? And establish empathy for actual Black Women without making it about some white person’s “artistic” exploration, that’s ridiculous and would never work! *Cries pitifully into the sunset*

Seriously! If you want to raise awareness of vulnerable African tribes, why don’t you show, you know, actual African tribes? Talk about self-absorbed and ignorant as fuck all.

THAT!! If you want to bring awareness to the diversity of/threats to these tribes, why not use the authentic portraits?! I am so confused.

I’m imagining the women in the original portraits are reacting to her project. The Arbore tribeswoman seems thisfuckingclose to a throat punch.

Wait...

It bums the fuck out of me that you know there are people who would feel uncomfortable by some of the original images but are all too enthusiastic about the appropriations.

They are! WHY NOT JUST POST THOSE. The women in the original portraits are all absolutely gorgeous.

These stunning portraits show how beauty varies across the globe and prove that all of us are beautiful in a different way. They’re celebrating stunning tribal beauties at the brink of extinction.

So brave. So moving.

Good lord this is headache-inducing. The original portraits are so gorgeous too...
