About

The year is 2021 and still, in the UK, there are no legislations outlawing hair discrimination whether it's in schools or the workplace, with groups such as Project Embrace and the Halo Collective fighting for change, how are we still here? We are joined by MP for Brent Central, Dawn Butler, former Shadow Secretary of State for Women and Equalities, and Kelechi Okafor, actress, director, and public speaker, to talk discuss the problems and possible ways that we can contribute to enforce longstanding positive change.Unpretty Podcast https://www.instagram.com/unprettypodcast/ https://twitter.com/unprettypodcast Dawn Butler Brenthttps://www.instagram.com/dawnbutlerbrent/ https://twitter.com/DawnButlerBrent Kelechi Okaforhttps://www.instagram.com/kelechnekoff/ https://twitter.com/kelechnekoff The Halo Collective: https://halocollective.co.uk/ Stylist: Let’s discuss Naomi Osaka https://www.stylist.co.uk/fitness-health/wellbeing/naomi-osaka-upsetting-pressures-black-female-athletes/528269 Ebony, 1982: What Happened to the Afro https://tinyurl.com/48d65v7t Glamour: Hair Discrimination is Real https://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/afro-hair-bias-hair-discrimination This week's beauty recommendations:TK Maxx: This Works No Wrinkles Extreme Moisturiser: https://www.tkmaxx.com/uk/en/womens-early-access/no-wrinkles-extreme-moisturiser-48ml/p/42362294 Estrid Eco Blades: https://estrid.com/uk/products/ Hosted on Acast.
