The I Am Possible movement is fantastic! In my view it really is a much needed event as well as a movement to redress the fact that women of colour are often portrayed in a negative light in the media whether subtly or explicitly or simply just ignored. Left unchecked these messages and slights can have far reaching negative consequences for women of colour. Well done to Simone for pushing back and showcasing what is the reality for many women of colour which does include success, ability, diverse pursuits, mega achievements, courage, strength, support and sisterhood, fun, beauty, and all the experiences of life in between.
