Plus Size Modeling: Creating a New Normal

We stumbled upon this interesting Indiegogo fundraising campaign recently, and thought it deserved some discussion. Two filmmakers are trying to create a film that follows the lives of a few plus size models, along with exploring the definition of plus size modeling and finding a way to combat discrimination against plus size individuals. See below for a link with all of the details:



At Square One, we are always on the lookout for ways to both improve the health of People of Size, as well as create greater social awareness of the continued discrimination that People of Size face. Do you believe that this campaign will be good or bad for People of Size? Does it help bring awareness to issues People of Size face, or do it just reinforce stereotypes?

Let us know in the comments below!!
