After attending a Black Lives Matter march in Paris last summe | Woke America News

After attending a Black Lives Matter march in Paris last summer protesting George Floyd's death, the Afro-Latina supermodel Joan Smalls thought back on her own experiences with racism.

"We want to have this perceived notion that we're all equal, but in reality, we're not treated that way," Smalls said. "It's great that the movement caught such a momentum in 2020, but obviously it's a conversation that needs to continue so that it's normalized, so it's not just a phase. In order to have real change, there has to be continuity."
