Chiara Ferragni Is Fighting for Black Lives Matter From Italy
The Italian it-girl is more than a fashion influencer; she carries strong opinions and takes an active part in the Black Lives Matter movement.
Having already used her influence in Italy in the fight against coronavirus, where she and her husband raised 3.3 million euros, Ferragni has now joined the Black Live Matter movement. On her twitter account, Chiara asked her followers to sign a petition addressed to Mayor Frey.

Her efforts did not stop there; on Sunday and after a happy weekend with her family, the influencer protested in the streets of Milan to support the Black community.
In a statement, the influencer acknowledged that with a big voice comes big responsibilities, and as she tries to educate her two years old son, she also tries to advocate and raise awareness to her 20 million followers. Chiara is more than a designer and an influencer; she dares to speak out and try to be a leader for younger generations. Change can only be made by individuals willing to be vocal.
