We sat down with Asia Jackson, creator of the #MagandangMorenx campaign, and Anthea Armah to talk about anti-blackness. Reacting to our episode of “How do we unlearn Anti-Blackness in Filipino Culture?”, they share their experiences with racial aggressions, skin whitening, and the harmful effects of colorism. They also explore the history behind colorism in the Philippines (especially towards Indigenous Filipinos), its connection to spanish colonialism, and how blackness shouldn’t be associated with class. In this One Down Reacts, we explore this topic even more and would love to know what you think. Let us know in the comments below the next video you want us to react to!
