FKA Twigs, Lorde and the New Feminist Dance Movement

Een geestig stuk in Pitchfork over waarom o.a. onderstaande dansbeweging van FKA  feministisch is…



"Kim Kardashian doesn’t realize she’s the butt of an old racial joke"

"those of you saying that Kim Kardashian needs to put on some clothes simply because she is a mother need to sip a big champagne glass of “Girl, Bye!” Because this antiquated idea that mothers are not allowed to celebrate their sexuality is ridiculous and naive. How exactly do you think women become mothers? Immaculate conception?"

But also: "When I looked at the spread all I saw was a not so subtle reincarnation of Saartjie Baartman – imagery that is steeped in centuries of racism, oppression and misogyny."
