We’re living in terrifying times for trans rights. With anti-trans legislation occurring around the world, it’s never been so important that we use our voices for change. That is precisely what model and activist Munroe Bergdorf’s new book Talk To Me is about galvanising.
In this new book, Munroe uses her own experiences as an activist and a high-profile model to discuss the importance of having difficult conversations. Packed full of her own life lessons, stories and values, it is an essential starting block for anyone who is unsure of how to make their voice matter.
You can read our full interview with Munroe in our June/July issue, available to order now on divadirect.info.
Here’s a teaser of what the star told DIVA…
On speaking out: “I’ve never felt comfortable with not saying anything”
On allyship: “Allyship is about closing the divide between us”
On having tough conversations: “A lot of the problems that we have are because we can’t communicate with each other and we don’t see the humanity in each other.”
