S2E15: On this episode of MK on the Mic, I am talking about blackfishing. Many white girls have gone viral on the internet for before and after photos. In the before photo, they look like a white girl and in the after photo they’re plastered in dark fake tan and seem to appear racially ambiguous. Ariana Grande has also recently been called out for blackfishing.

Topics include:

• What is blackfishing
• Is Ariana Grande blackfishing?
• The difference between tanning, skin bleaching and blackfishing
• Racial feshitisation and the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade
• White people being praised for appropriating black culture
• White people taking opportunities from black influencers
  …and more!
