Sep 22 2020
As a British Vogue cover star, passionate mental health campaigner, and the activist behind the groundbreaking Gurls Talk platform, Adwoa Aboah has already packed a lot into her 28 years. But the model confesses to being intimidated by 15-year-old Marley Dias, the US schoolgirl and powerhouse behind the #1000BlackGirlBooks campaign. For the third episode in British Vogue’s Speaking Up series, Adwoa asks Marley about what inspired her to become an activist at such an early age, why diversity in children’s books is so important, and the changes she hopes to see in the world.
