"As activists, we fear that we’re being used to improve a brand’s image and that they are using our voices for their own benefit... But you can’t try to erase the Indigeneity that I fought so hard to represent, and that includes my tattoos."
@quannah.rose is using the runway to change the world.
The model speaks to activist Xiye Bastida at the link in bio about self-care and bringing her Indigenous heritage to climate change conversations in fashion.
