In 23 years at McGill, I wonder how much money I would have if there was a dollar for every student and parent who told me they chose McGill because there were too many Chinese students at UBC. You don’t know how to respond because the shock is so great each time.

Fair or Not?: The Snow White Complex
Directed by: M. Hasna M.
“Fair or Not?: The Snow White Complex” is a documentary about Eurocentric standards of female beauty that are held across most (post-Colonial) cultures.
Some of the topics covered: Skin color preferences in relation to class/culture, the media’s role in exacerbating internalized racism, skin bleaching products, exoticism of dark-skinned women, and the phenomenon of tanning amongst White women.
WATCH THIS NOW. WATCH IT.

It was beautifully inspired by the lovely blog Pictures of Muslims Wearing Things.
Submit your photos and videos of Asians not studying (not limited to celebs!), and we'll post them!
