Embrace your natural curl! That’s what 20-year-old Destini Amaris Perkins is working to help other women and girls do.

As a young girl, she perceived her hair as less valuable than her white counterparts. She fell into the belief that Eurocentric beauty standards were the only standard of beauty. Now, she uses her platform as an activist to educate and empower other women to love their natural hair.

“In my personal journey, the more I began to learn about the history of my ancestry and how hair played a major role, I began to feel honored and appreciative of my hair,” Destini said.

Over this last legislative session, The Crown Act was attempted to be discussed and ultimately to be passed. The bill was called S.B 117 under Utah’s Antidiscrimination Amendments. Destini lobbied for the crown act in Sacramento in 2019 with the California NAACP branch.

Hear about how Destini is changing the world through her activism and is helping other girls embrace their natural hair.
