PRETTY FOR A DARK SKIN GIRL

PVLSE MEDIA CEO TERRENCE FLOWERS ANNOUNCES THE FILMING OF HIS UPCOMING DOCUMENTARY
“PRETTY FOR A DARK SKIN GIRL”

a film about colorism in the African American community

 

Filmmaker and PVLSE MEDIA CEO TERRENCE FLOWERS​ announces today that the Pvlse Media will be
filming their upcoming documentary “PRETTY FOR A DARK SKIN GIRL”​ This documentary examines the
contrast between skin tones and how it affects a person’s perception of beauty​. Society is programmed
to think European facial features along with lighter skin are the basis for beauty. We want you to hear
how these stereotypes and false sense of beauty have affected women with darker complexions.
The taping of the documentary will be held on Aug 17, 2017 at the COLUMBUS LIBRARY​ located at 4261
Macon Rd. COLUMBUS GA​ 31907 from 1pm to 5pm. These African American women will be interviewed
by local filmmaker TERRENCE FLOWERS​ and also given a complimentary headshot for press and
marketing. The term pretty for dark skin girl is derogatory in nature because it seems to have a
alternative motive by saying most dark skin girls are ugly​ and by default you are an exception to that
rule. Through my filmmaking and the testimonies of these women I hope to explore and maybe get a
sense of understanding for this dilemma that plagues the black community.
PVLSE MEDIA​ has brought the community some of the most thought provoking documentaries focusing
on social issues that affect us all. Colorism in the African American​ community has become very
problematic in all aspects of life from television to the workplace
