"Ar baltādainu modeli tas nenotiktu" - populārs Austrālijas žurnāls pie intervijas ar supermodeli pievieno citas sievietes bildi

Austrālijā populārais žurnāls "Who" izpelnījies nosodījumu pēc tam, kad pie intervijas ar sudāniešu-austrāliešu supermodeli Adutu Akeču pievienots citas melnādainas modeles foto.

"Ar baltādainu modeli tas nenotiktu" - populārs Au...

Žurnāls pie intervijas ar 19 gadus veco Akeču pievienojis fotogrāfiju ar modeli Flaviju Lazarus, ziņo "CNN".

“Tiem, kuri nezina, pagājušajā nedēļā žurnāls "Who"(Austrālija) publicēja rakstu par mani. Intervijā es runāju par to, kā cilvēki uztver bēgļus, kā arī par cilvēku attieksmi pret citas rases pārstāvjiem kopumā. Pie raksta viņi publicēja lielu fotogrāfiju, zem kuras apgalvots, ka tā esmu es. Bet tā bija cita melnādaina sieviete," savā "Instagram" lapā sašutumu pauž Akeča.

I’ve have given some deep thoughts the past few days on how to approach this situation that isn’t sitting well with me.  For those who are not aware, last week @whomagazine (Australia) published a feature article about me. In the interview I spoke about how people view refugees and peoples attitude to colour in general. With the article they published a large photo saying it was me. But it was of another black girl. This has upset me, has made me angry, it has made me feel very disrespected and to me is unacceptable and inexcusable under any circumstances. Not only do I personally feel insulted and disrespected but I feel like my entire race has been disrespected too and it is why I feel it is important that I address this issue. Whoever did this clearly the thought that was me in that picture and that’s not okay. This  is a big deal because of what I spoke about in my interview. By this happening I feel like it defeated the purpose of what I stand for and spoke about. It goes to show that people are very ignorant and narrowminded that they think every black girl or African people looks the same. I feel as though this would’ve not happened to a white model. My aim for this post is not to bash Who Magazine -they have apologised to me directly - but I feel like I need to express publicly how I feel. This has deeply affected me and we need to start an important conversation that needs to happen. I’m sure that I’m not the first person that’s experienced this and it needs to stop. I’ve been called by the name of another models who happens to be of the same Ethnicity, I find it very ignorant, rude and disrespectful towards both of us simply because we know that this doesn’t happen with white models. I want this to be somewhat of a wake up call to people within the industry it’s not OK and you need to do better. Big publications need to make sure that they fact check things before publishing them especially when its real stories and interviews and not just some made up rumors. To those who work at shows and shoots it’s important that you don’t mix up models names. Australia you’ve a lot of work to do and you’ve got to do better and that goes to the rest of the industry

Jaunā sieviete uzskata, ka šāda kļūda ir "nepieļaujama un nepiedodama jebkuros apstākļos" un notikušais viņai liek domāt, "ka aizvainota ir visa rase".

“Tas parāda to, cik ļoti cilvēki ir ignoranti un šauri domājoši, ka viņiem šķiet, ka ikviena melnādainā meitene vai cilvēki Āfrikā izskatās vienādi,” dusmas neslēpj modele. “Es jūtu, ka kas tāds noteikti nebūtu noticis ar baltādainu modeli."

Akeča piebilda, ka žurnāls viņai jau atvainojies, tomēr uzsver, ka viņai šķitis nepieciešams šo problēmu atklāt plašākai publikai.

Modele uzskata, ka notikusī kļūda bijusi pilnīgā pretstatā ar to, par ko sieviete runājusi publicētajā intervijā. "Who" par notikušo atvainojies arī publiskā ierakstā savā "Instagram" lapā. "Mēs esam ļoti vīlušies, ka bilde ar vienu no mūsu kampaņas modelēm, Flaviju Lazarus, tika kļūdaini nodrukāta žurnālā Adutas fotogrāfijas vietā," vēstī ieraksts. "Šis ir iemesls, kāpēc ir tik svarīgi runāt par nevienlīdzību un integrēšanu."
