LAK and NIcole really went after each other on the Lupita’s article today. And it made me sad, because they are both right, they both have valid points, but that is the nature of Celebitchy -  people get too self-righteous, too absolute in their views and refuse to accept more nuanced views.

if you haven’t seen Lupita’s Vogue cover - take a look. It is absolutely gorgeous. I spent full 5 minutes just staring at it. It is so beautiful.

As for her point that colonialism causes an identity crisis, I don’t fully agree . I think colonialism impedes the development of the cultures that are colonized  and it tries to subsume them but I think colonized people are still very clear about who they are.
