Andrea Gibson, Take Me With You

“From childhood to adulthood, Black girls have remained a unique entity with an unmatched style and presence. We use beauty shops and beauty supply stores as a breeding ground and support group. It’s the black girls from the hood who buy $1 doorknocker earrings, sport long acrylic nails, with $20 wigs and bodycons from Rainbow with blue and purple lipstick that created this Baddie trend. We created this culture. We are this culture. Back when Black girlhood and womanhood was scary and a femininity wrapped in melanin was discouraged, we made this shit.”
