Racism is the belief that a certain race(s) is superior to others. Institutionalized racism is racism that is ingrained in a culture and formally sanctioned by society and/or the government. Prejudice is the harboring of negative attitudes toward a person just because he/she belongs to a certain group. One is making a prejudgment of the person based on the negative stereotypes one believes about the groups that person belongs to. Discrimination is prejudice in action. Everyone is capable of all of these things. In the U.S., minorities are not in a position of power to carry out institutionalized racism, but there are minority groups in other countries who do have or had that power e.g. South Africa during Apartheid.

 

Prejudice is an ecompassing term that can include racist beliefs and negative attitudes towards people for belonging to a certain nationality, gender, religion, region, ethnic group of the same race or different race, etc. Racism is specific to race.

 

 

There is plenty of room for her to be "whiter." She has dark, thick, curly hair and brown eyes. She also has some Indian features that are apparent to the trained eye. T.I.'s wife Tiny, for example, is supposed to be the coveted light-skinned black woman. She's even half white, but she went to Africa for a risky procedure to permanently change her eye color to ice gray and has bleached her hair blonde. Charli might be pale, but she grew up wishing that she looked more like the fully white girls around her. White women with blonde hair and blue eyes are presented as the highest standard of beauty. There is room for Charli to change beauty standards.

I didn't really mean she looks like all the other white girls out there, she definitely has a unique beauty, I just meant in terms of skin tone. She's not going to make people with darker skin feel more beautiful because she's a pale beauty, even if her features and hair are dark.

I know a lot of persons who are half white half Native American (it's pretty commun where I live) and, tbh, they don't seem to care about their heritage and who they are really. One time I tried to talk about it with my friends but they didn't know anything, in fact. I guess it depend of every person and where they are in their life at the moment. 

 

Anyway, I love this video

I tried this really fun sorter that ranks songs in order of favorites from a certain artist and here's what I got for Charli (leaving out the stuff on 14) (also they only had the first five songs to be released from Sucker included). It's weirdly accurate!

 

1 You're The One

2 Stay Away

3 You (Ha Ha Ha)

4 Take My Hand

5 Nuclear Seasons

6 Lock You Up

7 Grins

8 Set Me Free

9 Black Roses

10 What I Like

11 So Far Away

12 Boom Clap

13 Breaking Up

14 Break The Rules

15 London Queen

16 Gold Coins

17 How Can I

18 Cloud Aura

It's still so strange and funny to know that there are people in this thread that don't know about this. :cuteface:

 

well, I've known about the shoot and all, and I've seen .gifs from it seeeveral times. I just never found the video anywhere until it popped up on my dash this evening.

I was looking around and I found this and I got so happy and I don't know if it's been discussed here before but I DON'T REALLY CARE BECAUSE "SUPERLOVE": http://wmg.jp/artist/charlixcx/WPCR000016242.html

 

I wonder if it's just gonna be the music video as enhanced content or the actual track?

 

Break The Rules (Japan Version)?????? Is that like the Tokyo version of the Boom Clap video? If that's the case, I think the SuperLove track might be the video. :defeated: BUT it has So Over You!

These were exactly my thoughts! I actually want "SuperLove" to be an audio file because I think it's unfair that Charli's BEST song remains as a standalone single.
