    Iman has been the Somalian refugee woman whose fierce spirit gave permission to so many Somali girls, like myself, the right to SIMPLY BE and SHOW your beauty, regardless of what others thought. MAJESTIC, UNIQUE BEAUTY, coupled with the innocence that comes from growing up in a country like Somalia. ❤️🔥❤️

    I wish you would have mentioned Grace Jones who was also on the covers of Vogue and Elle. She was so unique, dark skinned, bold, and beautiful

    Black is beautiful, but modeling is a horrible industry.
