✨„Just like any woman, we weave our stories out of our bodies. Some of us through our children, or our art; some do it just by living. It's all the same.“
- Francesca Lia Block
🇿🇦 Being from Cape Town and growing up as a black woman, means growing up lacking sense of security - any time, any where.
🌈 Nevertheless Nella found her safe place amongst human beings, who don’t align a patriarchal construct of gender & racial stereotypes.
🎬 She works as a producer & and hosts the podcast ➡️ @cookingkitchen.
🗝 For Nella allyship is key to a better world. But allyship not only means to think & act intersectional, but for allys to do their own research.
💜 With public & honest conversations - if they find a willingly listening audience - we have the chance to understand our different experiences better and learn and grow from each other .
💥 Every person which is not affected by multiple, structural discrimination and is willing to listen till the end, is already doing the work to be a alley. It’s a process.
