Ashanti
What is something you do well?
Doing my hair.
What is something you have learned in the past week?
I learned about colorism and that it mainly affects dark-skinned women.
Light-skinned women get bullied too, but it is mostly based off of dark-skinned women trying to make them feel the same way.
What is a misconception people have about you?
They think I’m “messy.”
What is the biggest dream you have for yourself that you do not often say aloud?
I want to be a model on social media.
Who has had a positive influence on your life so far and why?
My sister-in-law because she is the reason I want to be a model. She taught me that beauty is more than skin-deep.
What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?
I would come to school in my pajamas.
What do you like about New Harmony?
It’s different from every other school. It helps us with our future, and it’s an inspirational place. You experience new things and break out of your comfort-zone.
