16: Episode 16 Kamala Harris And Colorism In America, Medical Tourism And The Woman Who Raised $2million For Her Afro Hair Wig Brand

In this week’s show, I am joined by Beauty Director  and founder of Beauty for Breakfast Dana Oliver.  We discuss the news that medical tourism is booming - more so in the pandemic, the Refinery 29 article on Kamala Harris, colorism and what it says about America's investment in whiteness and we question whether the investment in Thirteen Lune, black beauty platform, by the likes of  Gwyneth Paltrow and Naomi Watts marks a sea change for black beauty founders. In Praise Of … is Murad’s Clarifying Oil Free Water Gel and on Talking Points,  Freddie Harrel, shares how she went from  social media influencer to CEO and founder of Radswan, the afro hair wig brand that raised $2million dollars pre launch.
