Sasha Sarago: The (de)colonizing of beauty · 11:49 · Video: TED · Watch at the source

In short: Former model and Aboriginal author Sasha Sarago examines why rejecting uniform Eurocentric archetypes is vital for discovering a truly authentic self.

In this talk, Sasha Sarago argues that beauty is not merely about the physical body we inhabit. Instead, it is a way of being that transcends genetics and societal ideals. By decolonizing beauty, we can move toward an essential and authentic understanding of self that is accessible to everyone, rather than being confined to a single standard.
