In the wake of the current battle for racial equality following the murder of George Floyd by the police, Jess & Kristy have their first public conversation about how racism affects the modeling industry. Jess explains how agencies and brands which have previously turned down many black models are now virtue signaling using the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag because it's suddenly trendy. What can companies do to reconcile their prejudice history? What can independent models and photographers do to encourage a future that embraces a more diverse vision of beauty?
