S04EP05: Colonialism, climate change & consumerism...How can me make changes? With Aja Barber

Aja is writer, stylist and consultant whose work deals with the intersections of sustainability and the fashion landscape. Her Instagram video 'Why Performative Allyship is Triggering', which called out brands and influencers for monetising the Black Lives Matter movement, has accumulated over one million views. The video also put a spotlight on the disparity between fast fashion brand billionaires and their unpaid factory workers during the Covid-19 economic downturn. Aja’s upcoming book, Consumed, continues this important work by exploring the endemic injustices in our consumer industries and confronting the uncomfortable truth behind why we consume the way we do.Get your copy of “Consumed” here: https://www.waterstones.com/book/consumed/aja-barber/9781914240041 Hosted on Acast.
