A week of black feminism and colourism – in pictures

This week, we saw black feminist icon Beyoncé release Lemonade, in which she wore “European features”, highlighting how the femininity of black women is persistently under scrutiny at the hands of white beauty standards. This visual album also featured cameos from feminist and anti-racist icons such as Amandla Stenberg and Zendaya Coleman, and tributes to black women who lost the men in their lives, such as the mothers of Trayvon Martin and Eric Garner.
