:{AuNaturalModels Is Now Under going a major rebuilding Phase. Please check in with us as we become a more upscale Oganization to serve you.}Thank You again for your patients sincerly Rah-EL 9/20/07. Black models being sidelined by modeling agencies’ complains Naomi
khushi | Aug 22 2007 The following statement is one of the reasons that I was inspired to create AuNaturalModels Inc. in June of 1999: Ralph E. Littlefield Founder/CEO
Just because you are blind, and unable to see my beauty doesn’t mean it does not exist
This quote by Margaret Cho, is what the supermodel, Naomi Campbell wants to say right now. Racism is one such plague that we have been witnessing since many years in one or the other form. Every economy might have gained independence but discrimination on the basis of your skin tone exists now too. However, Naomi Campbell alleged that the world of fashion also believes in the same. Yeah! Straightforwardly, she said that racism as a practice does exist in this world of glamour also. As per her, designers and brands do prefer white models over black skinned models. To reform this horrific practice, the supermodel is keen to open her modeling agency in Kenya.
In a stark statement, exposing the fashion world, she said,
Black models are being sidelined by the major modeling agencies. It is a pity that people don’t appreciate black beauty. I even get a raw deal from my own country. For example, I hardly come on the front pages of London’s Vogue magazine. Only white models, some of whom are not as prominent as I am, are put on the front pages. I don’t want to quit modeling until I find that black models get equal prominence and recognition by the world media and information instruments.
She also plans to visit Narobi to find some young talent. The beautiful black lady is committed to establish them in the fashion world and make the world realize that ‘Black is indeed beautiful.’ “Nov .28, 2007: Many people ask me why aren’t there any white models in your agency. I tell them it’s not that there aren’t any it’s just that they haven’t noticed us or are unaware of us and that maybe due to ANM being a new organization .ANM is not for models of color only although this statement by Ms. Campbell is one of the very reasons I was inspired to create this wonderful idea. To give models of color and form (ie shapely) a platform to use to further their careers. Mind you we’re not trying to be another “booty driven company†ANM’s goal is to be just as upscale as all the major agencies. The difference with us is that we realize , recognize and promote urban beauty not the booty. We call this beauty “Urbanesque†meaning:of urban beauty. This is something we see everyday and it shouldn’t be over looked but it has for many of years in the Couture industry. That day has come to an end. Welcome to “The Dream, The Vision , The Reality that is AuNaturalModels Inc. Enjoy the ride. Ralph E. Littlefield: Founder/CEO. Nov.28,2007 4:24am.
