In case you need this reminder... #fatphobia #racism
“...the BMI detected less than 50% of “obesity” cases in Black, white and Hispanic women.” BMI is inaccurate, #fatphobic, & #racist. It has been criticized repeatedly, yet is widely used to (inaccurately) determine body fat & health. @Medium @yrfatfriend ow.ly/88hO30pJxfk
Who are your favorite fat activists to follow on Twitter?
