What does capitalism, colonialism, social media, feminism, and racism have to do with the fashion industry? Author, advocate, and speaker, Aja Barber dissects how systems of power directly influence our purchase habits and buying attitudes. How did we begin exploiting people to stay trendy? What’s social media’s role in this phenomenon? Who’s really affected by our addiction to consumption?
