Greetings Earthlings!
My name is Tamara pronounced Tam-a-ruh.
I like to talk about fashion, feminism, the media, and race and when all these things collide we get an awesome discussion!
FASHION
I became a fashion activist/culture critic/image activist at the age of 6 via a family vacation at Disneyland. Long story short: I wanted a Mulan costume and was devastated when I was told that they did not sell Mulan costumes. Matter of fact, they didn't sell any costumes of women of color (because there was no WOC princesses!)
This would be my first memorable encounter with the media's portrayal of beauty..and the rest is history.
CAREER
I am pursuing a career in broadcast journalism, fashion journalism, and fitness modeling.
