Our #RoleModelOfTheWeek is @Queen_Tite Opaleke — behavioural therapist, artist, & Black mother. Born with a disability & raising a son who is a child amputee, she faced racism while fighting for her son’s prosthetics. Today, they collect old prosthetics to donate globally.

An illusion that left her with invisible disability. She is a mother of two children, including a disabled child amputee. And as a disability justice activist, she ensured that her child was respectfully cast for a prosthesis after being denied due to his color. #shugafoundation

Iahnijah Opaleke made the acronym for his charity that donates prosthetics the same as the one for his condition that led to his need for them. @pffdinc is looking for more donations.
