“With the work I’ve put in to be a part of these particular firsts, what happened in this last month for me is a lot more powerful… and I appreciate those particular boundaries that I broke. But there’s something about male and racially set boundaries that bothers me. Why can’t we, as Africans, create our own firsts that are the [first] ever?”
“That’s the story I want to sell to the young child of Africa and that’s the kind of impact I hope to have with these kinds of collaborations,” she said, referring to her MAC kits. “When you’re one of the biggest brands in the country, you’ve got to look at someone that’s just as powerful and meaningful who can get the message across.”
