I’m very far from an activist, I am petrified of the rise in racism we’ve seen since Brexit, growing up me and my brothers got a lot of slack for being the only mixed race kids on the street. We used to put talc on our skin to look whiter and tried to bleach our skin one time. I see the impact racism can have on a person growing. It’s something I don’t want inflicted on children not in our time, we all deserve a right to live and be proud of who we are, not ashamed of what other people tell us we are.
