Homo Sapiens

A few years back Munroe Bergdorf was a model for L’Oreal who chose to speak out about systemic racism. She was promptly removed from the campaign. Cut to Black Lives Matter protests a few years later and it seems the world may be starting to catch up with her. She’s here to tell us her amazing story that has an incredible twist and to talk to us about what brands can do to properly help LGBTQ+ people, particularly beyond pride month when the rainbows disappear. She’s an inspiring force for good. Who could ask for a better guest? Big thanks to Facebook for sponsoring this special episode. x
