The first woman of colour to win Miss Universe Great Britain, Dee-Ann Kentish-Rogers, explains why her win contradicts pageantry's traditional idea of beauty.
In her own words, and I love this excerpt from her interview which is so deep and meaningful and relates to any given context within the many dimensions & converging themes of diversity at the same time. To me, this is a true reflection and representation of beauty channelling multiracial solidarity by dismantling of established racial hierarchies.::
"When you are a representation of a beauty standard, sometimes you have to challenge it or it has to become wider so that more people can see themselves reflected in that standard."
