Unwrapped Self Love
On 8th May 2021, Positive Circles screened Unwrapped, a documentary by Project Huru that featured three plus-size women who were journeying toward healing and acceptance. The documentary was directed by Sheilah Kimathi, and it featured Sarah Mukabana, Jazz Mistri and Alexandria Majalla. The panel discussion that followed the Unwrapped screening was insightful and addressed many topics that relate to body positivity, self-love, and self-acceptance. Key topics included how abuse shapes how we view our bodies, how colorism and trauma from colonialism can shape how we see ourselves, how mental health impacts how we treat our bodies, self-abandonment, and how it shows up in the neglect of our bodies and health.
