Regina is a 24-year-old blogger from Kenya who is very passionate about creating awareness on colorism, its effects, and providing possible solutions. She created the Instagram page Vert Berry Colorism to help dark-skinned girls “feel loved, heard, appreciated and represented.”
When asked by an audience member how she deals with people who try to cast doubt on her work or people who perpetuate hatred online, Regina eloquently answered that she remembers why she’s doing it in the first place.
That absolutely resonated with me.
The entire conversation was blessed by Regina’s beautiful spirit. And I enjoyed seeing all the love and support she received from her friends and family who tuned in to watch live.
