A Conversation with Dr. Sass Brown

Che had an opportunity to speak to Fashion Designer, activist, journalist, researcher, educator and now Dr. Sass Brown. Sass was the Founding Dean of the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation. Before joining DIDI, she was the Interim Dean for the Fashion Institute of Technology's School of Art and Design in New York.

Che and Sass met in the 1990s while working on the controversial exhibition A Question of Truth at the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto. Sass shares some of her memories: how a lost love forced her to explore her consciousness as a white woman. And her motivation for decolonizing fashion culture, body expectation and exploring natural materials. Her activism has evolved in different countries and cultures. They covered a great deal in their conversation, even Pierce Morgan's obsession with Megan Markle. Please take a listen, share the show and let us know what you think about this conversation.
