@emmawatson : Repost: @thebritishblacklist ===================================== 16 black French actresses protested equality, racism & inclusion at Cannes film festival last Wednesday ===================================== To coincide with the launch of their book "Being Black is not my job" (Noire n'est pas mon metier) the protest was led by French actress Aissa Maiga. _ Wearing Balmain dresses designed by Balmain's mixed race designer #OlivierRousteing, the women denounced the racism they've endured whilst trying to work in the French film industry. _ Actress Nadege Beausson-Diagne, was once told, "You can't play her, she's a lawyer" / "Luckily you have fine features and you are not negroid, not too black..." / "for a black, you are really very intelligent. You should have been white." 😑==================================== #TBBscreen #cannes18 #Cannes2018#France #FrenchActresses #BlackWomen#BlackActress #Protest #Representstion#FilmIndustry #FranceZobda #AissaMaiga#SabinePakora #MaimounaGueye#RachelKhan #AssaSylla
