"You're pretty for a dark skinned girl," is not a compliment. Deirdre Roberson started the fashion brand Eumelanin because she believes fashion can send a powerful message: All shades of skin are beautiful and should be celebrated. Deirdre Roberson is a Chemist and Fashion Designer born and raised in Detroit. Her work is dedicated to uplifting Black and Brown people around the world through science, design and creativity. She is the founder of EUMELANIN, is a fashion brand that infuses science by using the chemical structure of Melanin in its designs, and Co-founder of The Lab Drawer, an Ed-Tech monthly subscription box full of cross-functional learning experiences for children ages 10 - 14. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
