And this is why I post mostly black male models. Im beginning not to be so fond of these designers anymore. Im over it, Im requesting more black models on the runway's and in ad campaigns, "one token" black child is no longer acceptable. It's insulting. Im not supporting any of these fashion houses who don't support a face of color.** The thing that gets me is that while I was in New York last month for fashion week, I did notice that almost every designer only had 1 to 2 black models in their show. I can't wrap my finger around the concept that if there are 20 to 30 models in a show, why would you only cast 2 black ones. Some shows even had 1. As Americans we like facts and stats, so lets look at it in that way.
Get into the numbers people.
