The name (created by Tee Noir) for the idea that Eurocentric features (slim nose, high cheekbones, and loose curls) are more favorable than Afrocentric features (coily hair, wide nose, dark skin).
“Because of featurism, the only wide spread representation of black women in the media are light-skinned women with loose curls and light eyes.”
