On our radar: fashion designer Sindiso Khumalo

Some have asked me “Why Harriet and why now?” Essentially, I feel that we have to look at historical events and figures in order to understand our present. Violence against black women has been in existence since Harriet Tubman’s time and still exists today with Uyinene Mrwetyana in South Africa, Breonna Taylor in the United States and the Chibok school girls from Nigeria who were stolen by Boko Haram.
These events are all linked, and the violence is still rife. What I try to do with my collections is to pay homage to women like Harriet Tubman and to all women who have been victims of gender based violence.
