Shayla speaks of the recent events that plagued the African American community and the personal impact they had on her. She then shares how she decided to take a stand and express herself: fashion. As a Houston native, Shayla Janel Hill is a film maker, fashion blogger, and boutique owner who discovered her truth through the art and creation of fashion. Hill recorded a behind-the-scenes feature documentary – ‘Fashion Weak’ – which documented her journey that led up to Slay for a Change. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
