It is my duty to keep the standards, meaning I only have room for improvement and not to go and lower them.
The beauty of a woman is not limited to her physical attributes; there is more to it, the heart and the mind.
Most men target these young models and young girls as they define beauty, which has brought problems in African societies.
I have travelled to South Africa, Lesotho, the US, Senegal, Reunion Island and Madagascar, working with artistes on this campaign.
Women from these villages have given testimonies that they have removed themselves from detrimental conditions.
There is this general perception that models represent beauty, which is very wrong. Is a pregnant woman not beautiful, is a mother of one not beautiful?
I choose to be the scapegoat for African women to make society aware to the fact that there is more to a woman than her size. I am exposing my thighs to show that thick black women have nothing to be ashamed of.
