When I met Kat a year later, I finally found a glimmer of hope. Here was a womxn so much like myself who was turning her rage into a call to action. During that first summer of our friendship, Kat and I bonded in the deepest way I have ever experienced. Both of us are passionate young womxn who have felt silenced in one way or another throughout our lives, and we spent that summer fanning the flames of our shared vision for Providence and the country. We were, and we remain today, unimpeachably dedicated to fighting a system that doesn’t take young people, particularly young womxn, seriously. Walking at New York Fashion Week for 6 seasons in a row is an achievement I am really proud of. I love walking at NYFW as it was not only my first big runway show 3 years ago but also because it now feels like home when I’m there. I feel so comfortable and always love the experience and can’t wait to go back each time. I’m also very proud of my feature inForbes Magazine Throughout Alexander’s long and fruitful career, she championed civil rights for marginalized groups, especially Black women, creating a path for today’s Black economists, lawyers, and policy practitioners. She’s an example for all of us today on how to weather uncertain times at the nexus of political instability, racial injustice, and a global health crisis.Ever since thedeath of Trayvon Martin on February 11, and performed well in the Iowa Caucuses —however messy the results
