She’s mentioned the Kartrashians a few times and I think she has a bit of a weird obsession with them. Maybe she’s trying to look like them?
PoC here. I actually wanted to say I'm not offended by Sarah's tan at all. I used to love her content because I'm a massive health nut - always been an xs, ate a super restrictive GF, DF diet and always loved working out. I just wanted to add that I don't like how some of you think you can speaker on behalf of people of colour, as if PoC are helpless, poor and weak and as if they need white people to defend or protect them. Of course you can be allies but please don't be offended on our behalf.
I come from a generation of PoC who've worked extremely hard to be successful and I've lived a privileged life thanks to my family's hard work. For my mental health and overall well-being when I noticed that Sarah was a bit racist (including all her other issues - restrictive diet, over-exercising) I unfollowed her and found new positive influencers to follow and there are also tons of PoC influencers who are amazing and successful so we really don't need toxic influencers like Sarah to represent us or make us feel included - it wouldn't even be genuine. I don't mean to excuse what she's done as we need to call out people like Sarah but Sarah has been offending PoC for a while now and she's still not cancelled so that tells me that her audience is mainly white and they couldn't care less about cancelling her for offending PoC.
When influencers like Sarah are blatantly racist I move on as outrage isn't going to cancel them as the majority of her fans are people similar to her. Just out of kindness stop speaking on behalf of PoC or getting offended on their behalf it's actually quite offensive. That's my opinion. I only mentioned my family to show that PoC are dynamic, strong and hard working so I think we can speak for ourselves if and when we're offended. Some of the comments I read like she looks "African black" were actually more offensive as PoC are diverse and we already have issues like colourism (so terms like African black are incredibly offensive). Also all the models Sarah has used have been mixed race not actually fully black. People of colour come in all kinds of shades, for instance, my skin is very pale and fair. So please be mindful of your language, where I come from mixed race people don’t identify as black, we all come from different countries with different histories - not all black people are American and blacks people aren’t always offended by the same things.
I apologize for any typos and mistakes, I was quite upset while writing this.
