Yes. #Balenciaga BAD. Many who work in fashion (print, modeling, etc.) are ALSO children. Many <18, but I argue that ~25 is still youth & very vulnerable in media. Don't be shocked ONLY after seeing something so overt. THIS IS YOUR INCENTIVE TO PROTECT YOUTH IN MEDIA👇
CHANGE the mentality around "childhood." It is a social construct, determined by factors not limited to: gender, geography, race, home life, religion, sexuality, ability, etc. 👇
Where was the #Balenciaga shoot done? What are child labor laws there? Was this conceptualized w this age group? In USA media, under 16 = exempt from child labor laws (w permit). Blanket protection for producers, not children. 👇
@MoodyLilac I read that it was in Thailand - beyond the reach of the law.
