How do you deal with Pinoy kids showing colonial mentality? I overheard a set of tweens ranting to one another of how each of them wanted to have whiter skin and pointed nose because they think they are not beautiful enough.

Thankfully now there's a huge body positivity conversation going on in the internet. You can show them videos similar to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKTZAsDVkzs Keep the conversation light and ask them to probe into their biases--why do they think that whiter skin is prettier? Why are pointed noses more desirable than flatter noses? It's all about getting them to question their notions of what is or isn't beautiful.
