Have you heard of the #PaperBagTest ? Well we took it to a whole new level. . . . In the 40’s 50’s & 60’s blacks discriminated against each other with what they called the paper bag test. If your skin was darker than a paper bag, you weren't permitted to join countless social & political groups. This black on black social hierarchy even permeated in the black church. Our shoot today, “The Paper Bag Test Challenge” is meant to show a stark contrast and focus a light-hearted look on this terrible legacy of the black community in America.
