First post of 2019 ✨ in 2018 I learned the meaning of living with a purpose which could also be taken as living with intention. By living with intention, you’re making conscious decisions every day that should support the life you want for yourself

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THESE DESCRIPTIONS? Please share your thoughts in the comments.
_________
Some feel that comparing black skin to food is dehumanizing and offensive. Others say it depends on the context and the way it’s worded. Others have expressed that words like “woolly” to describe hair texture are rooted in racism. I like to see colorful, creative descriptions for black characters to capture our vast diversity in complexion, hair texture, and facial features, but it must be done in good taste. Let me know your thoughts and how you choose to describe black characters.
