Beyoncé And Blue Ivy Are To Thank For This New Challenge Going Viral On The Internet – BuzzFeed

With anthems like “Run The World (Girls),” “Flawless,” “Diva,” and “Irreplaceable,” Beyoncé knows how to inspire us through her music.

This week, the Lemonade singer released her complementary album, The Lion King: The Gift, which she called “a love letter to Africa.”

One of the album’s standout tracks, “Brown Skin Girl,” features vocals from Queen Bey’s 7-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter.

The empowering song praises brown-skinned women like Lupita Nyong’o, Naomi Campbell, and Kelly Rowland, and has inspired others to embrace their own melanin for all of its richness and beauty.

Over the weekend, the hashtag #BrownSkinGirlChallenge went viral with Black women around the world uploading photos of themselves feeling proud of the skin they’re in.

Others simply used the hashtag to join in on the fun and share their sunkissed selfies.

Even the little ones got in on the challenge, and I could cry tears of joy.

Some got creative with their captions.

While others summarized the importance of the song so eloquently:

Everyone wanted to join in once the challenge went viral…

Because why not?

Here’s to hoping that Beyoncé notices this pure challenge and gives these beautiful women a shoutout as she did with the #BeforeILetGoChallenge earlier this year.
