OM DETTA AVSNITT
In light of the Black Lives Matter movement and protests against police brutality worldwide, Ruby and Lara discuss pervasive issues of racism in the fashion industry and provide some resources for positive change. Please note that this is just the beginning of a conversation that will evolve for weeks, months, and years to come, so feel free to reach out if there is anything you’d like to hear discussed in future episodes.
