Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Thursday complimented a photographer for capturing her skin tone in the correct shade for her Time magazine photo shoot.

“This is a small-big thing, but shout out to TIME and Collier Schorr for getting my skin tone right in this photo,” the Latina lawmaker wrote on Twitter. “It’s the little things that make a big difference, a lot of people see + appreciate it.”

Color photography has a long history of bias toward nonwhite skin tones.

“Color photography has a long history of bias toward nonwhite skin tones.”

Yes, color photography is a terrible racist, as is algebra.

There ought to be a law.

“bias toward nonwhite skin tones.” -— I assume they mean the opposite? Can anyone edit or write news anymore?
