Miss Albinism Africa with Sierra Leone's Daniella Garrick

In this powerful episode, we explore the discrimination faced by persons with albinism across Africa through conversations with two remarkable advocates from the Sierra Leone Association of Persons with Albinism (SLAPWA).
Join us as we welcome back Jay Kamara, a familiar voice to our listeners, alongside Daniella Garrick, a model, youth leader, and advocate who is representing Sierra Leone in the upcoming Miss Albinism Africa pageant in June 2025.
Our guests share how marginalized communities can transform visibility from a source of vulnerability into a platform for challenging misconceptions. Through initiatives like the Miss Albinism Africa pageant, they demonstrate how advocacy can operate effectively for communities that have faced persistent discrimination.
This episode offers valuable insights into:
The specific support needed by persons with albinism in Sierra Leone
How pageantry becomes an unexpected vehicle for profound human rights advocacy
Ways you can participate in these important advocacy efforts
