On this episode of Tia Maria's One of a Kind podcast series, Erin Holland speaks with Author, Actor and Singer Suzan Mutesi. Since moving to Australia from Uganda where she was born, Suzan Mutesi has been hard at work, focussing on her career and building a community on and offline she can help uplift. Though she gained her start in fashion, working as a designer and dressing local talent, she has segued into acting, singing, modelling and has recently released her first book: Unapologetically Black: Afro Sisters.

Deriving the narrative from her own experiences, facing racism in and outside of the arts and modelling world, the release of her book in 2020 is significant as it has been four years in the making, and lends itself as an especially timely reminder to the next generation to embrace their difference, whatever that may be.

With a growing audience on Instagram, her fans are sharply attuned to the ways in which the multi-hyphenate is mobilising fashion, music and social media to point attention to causes close to her heart.
