On the 13th November 2024, our young activists showcased and celebrated their achievements over the past year.

Our young activists launched their new short films and educational campaigns, including ‘Shade’ and ‘Theatre Boy’.

Shade is the story of Kiran and Tia, two friends who face increasing pressure to conform to Eurocentric beauty ideals when experiencing colourism from society, peers and family as well as within their respective communities.

Theatre Boy explores the life of Anthony, who is a young and impressionable teenager and aspiring actor who accidentally gets involved with a dangerous group of young men and subsequently falls victim to a knife attack.
