Leandrew Robinson - The Man Behind Ragamuffin Clothing

The Black Intel: “Since the creation of Ragamuffin, tell us what has given you your biggest break and what was your biggest obstacle.”

Leandrew Robinson: “Our biggest break was when Essence Magazine did an article on our Obama shirts and from there our online sales picked up dramatically. The events leading up to our Essence Magazine article was the biggest obstacle I have encountered so far.”

French Vogue does photo shoot in Black Face!

I don’t know if you caught the internet buzz, but according to Jezebel.com, French Vogue did a photo shoot in well…black face. Just for a reference point I have a picture below of what the model above usually looks like. So what do ya’ll think, is this art or is the straight up offensive and racist? Side note, if they wanted a darker skin model, I here they are a couple of Black and Latina models out there that you don’t have to paint to look darker. I wonder why they weren’t picked?
