WOMEN OF COLOUR

REFINERY29

Women Of Colour sheds light on intersectional feminism from a racial perspective. Not only are women of colour dealing with the sexism conveyed in popular culture, but they’re also dealing with racism and prejudice. In this film, these women unapologetically call out the racist stereotypes they’ve been subjected to and vow to take charge of their own narratives.

The statements heard in the film are pre-recorded soundbites taken from interviews with the women who feature.

“…as women, all our experiences aren’t always reflected in mainstream feminism. This was an opportunity to show how the sexist remarks and attitudes towards certain women are often loaded with racial connotations and stereotypes. It’s hard for all women to jump on board with mainstream feminism, when our experiences aren’t always accounted for.”  –  Marian Edusei, ‘Free the Bid’.
