I’ve sat down with the amazing Akua, who shared her story with me.From growing up in Africa and trying to fit into UK culture, to never seeing any race other than Black during her childhood, she opens up about it all.She talks about how she dealt with being bullied in school, her mum working hard to provide for her, and how her barbering career put her in difficult situations with men — including being stalked and not being left alone.She also shares her past relationships, such as being with a Muslim man and another who tried to take advantage of her.We discuss why she stayed silent after being cheated on, and much more.Thank you in advance for watching.
