A little extra: The story of Sarah Baartman
Surprise! I finally dropped this little extra episode. It's not exactly a bonus episode, and it's not a regular episode of Beauty Unlocked.
Get ready as I almost lose my damn mind during my epic rant and rave. Warning! I use some very crude and explicit language, which I would like to apologize for in advance.
You've been warned!
In this extra episode, I delve into the tragic story of Sarah Baartman and the ordeal she faced once she was brought to Europe and paraded in what was at the time the popular 'Freak Show.'
Today, she is seen by many as the epitome of colonial exploitation and racism, the ridicule, and commodification of black people.
You might've heard of her through her stage names of the 'Hottentot Venus,' 'Black Venus,' or as the French came to know her the 'Venus Noire.'
Buckle up, my loves, because I have officially unleashed the raging beast within.
Are. You. Ready?
