what advice would you give to that young man who came from ghana arriving in south london in the mid—�*80s, hoping to make his way in the world? don't be scared. you belong. and everything will be ok. let's be frank about this. you are, in many ways, you are an unlikely figure. your story is remarkable. to what extent do you see yourself, a former asylum seeker, working class, black, gay man, to what extent do you see yourself as someone who wants to be an agent of change? do you wake up in the morning thinking you need to change the fashion industry, to change the media, that there is work to be done? i do not wake up thinking, "i am here to change the world" but i wake up thinking that maybe i could make the world a better place byjust reflecting my idea of what the world should be, you know? i shouldn't be here, you know? i was from a country where we had to flee, so every day is a thankful day and every day i try to think of what to do in the world that
