Victoria Beckham is speaking out. The 46-year-old designer shared her thoughts on the fashion industry and the Black Lives Matter movement. Beckham posted the following on Instagram. <\/p>\n
“I\u2019ve taken a step back this week to focus on the tragic events that have been highlighted recently. Watching things unfold and learning more about the Black Lives Matter movement, I\u2019ve been truly sickened by how deeply ingrained racism is in our society. It\u2019s clear that it\u2019s each of our responsibilities to speak out and I want to use my platform for education, conversation and change.The fashion industry has a huge role to play, and for me, it starts with representation, both within my business and who we work with externally. I\u2019ve always aimed for inclusivity, but we all need to look inwards and be better. At Victoria Beckham, we\u2019ve set up an internal working group as a first step and will provide additional support to ensure that we are listening to each other, discussing the issues, identifying unconscious bias in ourselves and ensuring our short and long-term actions reflect all our learnings. Whilst things won\u2019t change or be solved in a day, we clearly can\u2019t wait another day to start and I am absolutely committed to being better and doing more, both personally and professionally. I hope you all share my sentiment and are doing the same with your friends, family, brands and businesses so that we all play our part in this vital issue.” x vb Many fashion and beauty brands are stepping up with messages and donations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CBDg0OYJ1VT\/?utm_source=ig_embed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Victoria Beckham is speaking out.
