Frida Kahlo


Listen Later

Hello and welcome back to AS(Fem)R!


This evening's episode is about Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.  

On the YouTube ASMR channel, we colored a picture of Frida which you can print and color for yourself as well https://coloring-pages.info/self-portrait-with-necklace-of-thorns-by-frida-kahlo-printable-coloring-pages-book-18100


**Correction: The first time I pronounce the word Tehauna as Tay-hana instead of Teh-wanna, which is later corrected in the rest of the video (and I hope that THAT is correct but please let me know if it isn't.  It's really important to me that words are pronounced correctly)  


**Content Warning** I will be talking about Frida's bus accident.  It's a very important event that I didn't want to skip over.  I will be recounting the event and her injuries but I will not be going into great detail or gore.  I have cued you in the video as to the start and stop of that section so you can skip over it easily if you feel like it is something that might bother you.
