All thanks to Edward for standing up for us in any corner, And Trevor I can never be proud enough of you as a fellow south african you even made me love the show. We Miss you this side buddy.

I love Trevor's perspective in his interviews but when he asked that they remove 'plus' from models, I melted. I am so very supportive of this! If I knew a fashion magazine would have racial diversity and body diversity I'd buy it. Add some older models and it is everything it always should have been.

Thank you for calling it out for the TRUTH that it is; rascim existence is in all aspects of African Americans lives and our brothers and sisters throughout the diaspora. I thank you for the leadership to see, do and create the space that continues to open the doors of opportunities in the fashion industry!

Ghanaians more than any other Africans have a level of self love and pride that means they far more willing to stand up to racism and oppression because they do not have an inferiority complex. Even colonial Europeans centuries ago talked about how hard it was to manipulate Ghanaians and deemed them the smartest of African peoples. Ghanaians came up with the first concepts of black power and pan-Africanism and it was Ghanaians descendant slaves that started revolution in Jamaica, including Marcus Garvey and Suriname. And Ghanaian tribes even defeated Britain at the height of imperial power. It is that self pride is why Ghana has one of the most stable and successful societies in all of Africa and you can see that typical Ghanaian self-love and willingness to stand up to racism in Edward

Thank you in pointing out that a person of color is sitting in the back row when in all actuality you were supposed to have been on the first row. I’m liking idea of fashion being made of what one feels on the inside that determines what is fashion.

In an industry about ranges of beauty that represent and interact with the entire populous and effect pretty much everyones perception it’s a commercial area facing alot of difficulty adapting. The interests behind all of the beauty industry that can be resistant to adaptation are varied and deep seated even when traditionally they can also lead an effective charge on changing stereotypes. You always see alot of that charge in a space that’s harder to even think of getting it through. For alot of newer people (or smarter ones) the push for adaptation seems to be sink or swim and that can polarize the entire area. Mostly for the sake of money. I feel like there are a great many representations which are being pushed in fashion and beauty than industries which should have nothing to do with aesthetics at all, but people who work in the background of beauty have nothing to do with it’s face. Still, our face should represent our background and our background should be composed of everyone. I believe adaptation can sometimes necessitate adoption. There are people out there who fit the moulds you’re looking to fill, but it is hard to make them come to you when they might not even think they have a chance or if they have no way to get to you. You have to make them know they do have one and that even if they’re not a perfect fit in one spot, there’s probably somewhere else they are and you can’t necessarily wait for change to come to you. You have to recruit. Opportunity is supposed to knock. When I look on the magazine shelves I see more representation now than I ever have and you see leaders really trying to push for the idea of sustainability too. Big money and big problems, but huge impact.
