REPRESENT
Saying bye to Eurocentrism.
OUR STORY
Here at REPRESENT, we are driven by a single goal; to do our part in making the world an equal place for all. We strive to reduce racism, Eurocentrism, and white supremacy based ideologies stemming from the media and educational system.
​
Our belief is that children absorb many aspects of their environment, so by increasing education regarding ethnic minorities, the next generation will be more diverse in its thinking and representation.
OUR CO-FOUNDERS

At school, she is the co-founder of PERIOD.@Kamiak, which is striving to promote menstrual equity. Outside of activism, Alice loves to cook/eat, binge read Harry Potter, and watch TED and Bon Appetit.
