I think that we are all narcissistic. We could have never agreed to terms of normality without some narcissism. Narcissism is what we use to gauge our aesthetics,  social groups, and general behavior. It’s the reason why folks of color are constantly feel like they are under represented/ mis-represented in the media. We want something to identify with, not tokenism or sidekicks. Things are changing and that’s good. But it’s wild that Obama is considered Black and not white…when he’s both. I guess it’s because of the U.S.’s narcissism views. Ya’ll know I try and design with social relevance so I present to you Matilda. She’s prob not gonna save the world or patch up the economy but She’s cute, silly, is made in my own image (just like you to J.C .some would say), and I relate to her. Hope you do too.
