This campaign was created for the purpose of enlightening those who do not want to accept the beauty of all colours, sizes and shapes. There exists in the world many movements for this cause, we are proud to be one of them.
We live in a cruel world that spits acidic words at our skin colours, sizes and shapes. This movement tries to curb that problem. Our layers are beautifully imperfect and we respect that and hope to spread this opinion.
However, we want to do ours a bit different here on Wattpad. We urge you to send your stories, to share your experiences of colourism/shadism and body shaming, we are willing to listen to your stories, both the victims and the victimizers. Let's educate those who don't know that these forms of discrimination still happen.
Since this is a writing/reading community, anticipate exciting writing contests with prizes to be won.
Here at TheseLayers, we use your stories to stitch perfectly, imperfect layers.
