Black Photography
Did you see the gymnast Simone Biles in Vogue?
Earlier this month, American gymnast Simone Biles was featured on the cover of Vogue US. The images received backlash online for “bad lighting”, and some comments raised questions about why a black photographer with more experience of photographing black skin wasn't used. But Vogue US told The Next Episode that there was a lot of positive feedback from the audience and from Simone herself.
Hosted by Linda Adey.
