when ppl say representation doesn’t matter i always think about how when i was a little kid i wanted to be white
no one in my family ever lead me to believe that being brown was bad, and they were appalled when they learned how i felt
but when all a little kid sees on tv is skinny white people that’s what they’ll presume the ideal is

it took a long time for me to love my skin and where i come from
to the people who relate to this, i’m sorry i wish things had been different
and at the very least things are changing now, atleast slowly.
your skin is beautiful, you’re beautiful please try to remember that

i especially feel for my lgbtqia+ poc folks that’s a whole other layer of self hatred
i felt so wrong when i found out i was gay and trans

i didn’t expect this tweet to kinda blow up? but i’ve been reading all the comments and i just want to say i’m glad we can at the very least find solace in the fact we weren’t alone in how we felt, i didnt know how many other people had felt this way
thankyou for sharing your experiences and i hope that things will get better
