MEET MEGHAN X VOGUE'S FORCES FOR CHANGE STARS. 1/2 posts.
Adwoa Aboah, mental health campaigner and model
"Being an advocate has transformed my life. It’s so cheesy to say, but I really feel like this is what I was meant to do."
Adut Akech, former refugee and model
"I want to help people to understand that refugees are normal people, just like everybody else."
Ramla Ali, former refugee and boxer.
"Boxing has always been perceived as a male-dominated sport. All the senior heads of federations are men. I would love to see more female heads. That is how there will be more positive changes for women."
Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand.
"I’m proud we’re now a nation where girls don’t consider politics or political leadership extraordinary."
Sinéad Burke, diversity advocate and lecturer
"We need to constantly be asking what voices are not in the world, which perspectives are not being considered, and make sure that change occurs with as much intersectionality as possible."
Gemma Chan, campaigner and actor.
"I would like to see a real increase in the diversity of people who are in a position to make decisions in the industry."
Laverne Cox, LGBTQIA+ advocate, actor and producer
"I'm here to highlight the profound humanity that transgender people of all kinds possess."
Jane Fonda, campaigner and actor
"Actors are like repeaters: we pick up signals from voices that have a hard time being heard and amplify them."
Salma Hayek Pinault, women’s rights advocate, actor and producer
"Twenty-five years ago, I started to become an activist for woman’s rights. Nobody wanted to talk about it. One time I heard: “That’s not a sexy cause.” It was a huge struggle. Now, everybody’s an activist."
Francesca Hayward, Royal Ballet principal dancer
"I’m very proud of the colour of my skin and that I’m inspiring people from all backgrounds, but I think it will be great for the next mixed-race or black female Principal dancer that she doesn’t have to be asked about that."
