Pallavi, Sabriya, and Elysia are interns at Masakhane Center. We will be talking about content surrounding desirability politics! Desirability politics describes how ideas of attractiveness may play a role into our daily lives. It may affect how we see people when dating or interacting with friends. In this video, we will discuss differences between preferences and biases in dating, microaggressions, fetishization, and some examples of these in modern media.
