And the original quote the writer drew from: Black people have long been maligned for their looks, especially in the context of the United States. Still, standards of Black beauty have pushed fashion forward for centuries in the US and Europe. We are beautiful people!

The three young women who have focused their energy on demonstrating how standards of Black beauty speak for American standards of beauty are to be commended. Participating in a beauty pageant can be a way to demonstrate talents, intellect, and intentionality.

These three standardbearers prove that black beauty is at the heart of a 21st century American ideal. We can only hope that Beauty standards will continue to evolve, making space for our radical diversities.
