In this episode we're joined by climate justice, refugee rights and anti-racism activist Mikaela Loach to talk about intersectional activism within sustainable fashion. We explore the interconnectedness of social justice and sustainability, the marginalised people left out of the fashion conversation, and the importance of system change over lifestyle change. Follow Mikaela on Instagram, support her Patreon, and listen to the Yikes Podcast to learn more about the issues she covers in the conversation.
