last week, black women took to twitter to create a campaign for our superwoman, lupita nyong’o, to receive her own lipstick shade by mac. i can’t think of a worthier cause in the beauty industry and smiled at the sight of sisters rocking bold lip colors with the hashtag #lupitaforMAC. kudos to my black feminist twitter gurus, joan morgan, yaba blay and esther armah, for helping to showcase black women’s beauty and calling on a major cosmetics company to respond to our voices.
