S1E4: Colonialism, Climate Change and Consumerism with – Aja Barber (Part I)
Manage episode 315656123 series 3283039
Today's guest is the very wonderful Aja Barber, who is a writer, stylist and consultant whose work deals with the intersections of sustainability and the fashion landscape. Aja's work builds heavily upon areas such as privilege, wealth inequality, racism, feminism and colonialism — and importantly how to fix the fashion industry with all these things in mind.
As well as running incredibly impactful social media accounts, which enable her audience to recognize and understand cause and effect with our consumerism, Aja has also just authored her first book, 'Consumed', which is a brilliant read about our need for collective change.
Aja's book illustrates the endemic injustices in our consumer industries and how these inequalities seep deeply into the fashion industry – and helps us confront the uncomfortable truth behind why we consume the way we do.
This episode of The Progressivists Podcast is actually a two-parter – as both host and guest just couldn't stop talking. So welcome to part 1!
