The UK Guardian recently interviewed Sudanese supermodel Alek Wek. Her story is truly inspiring. Poem and article below.
Article: Alek Wek: 'You don't have to go with the crowd."
Alek Wek: 'You don't have to go with the crowd."
indigo midriff
she made the clothes Dinka, smile
defied gravity
bald head, baaaaaad beauty
not another story
of sore skin, saved star
swoon: for this sista
who never had dark girl shame
about her self worth
Article: Alek Wek: 'You don't have to go with the crowd."
