Lost Identity (Home-made video)


This video is simple video that I made at home to help add to my overall argument. The video consists of the results of an interview I held to a group of eight 18-year old African American females about their views on African American beauty. Each girl was asked a total of four questions (all the same) in which they answered in front of a recording camera. The point was not only to hear viewpoints from African American females but African American females of all shades and personalities. No one mind is the same so I wanted to hear the views of various. Each girl was more than willing to answer the questions and a lot of them actually enjoyed doing it. They wanted their voices to be heard and their opinions to be spread. I hope you enjoy.

Shades of Black America



This video is simply a more popular video related to the issue of black color identity from the viewpoints of college students. Filmed on a more professional level, this video simply involves an announcer asking multiple questions to its participants. Each participant was an African American Student at Hampton University in Virginia. With male and female, light and dark, gay or straight participants, this video provides opinions from a wide variety of viewpoints.
