Who's your favourite superhero? And now … what's the colour of their skin? Excluding greens and blues and purples, there aren’t that many Superheroes of Colour. But did you know that Wonder Woman has a black twin sister? In this episode, award-winning copywriter Jordan Dinwiddie introduces us to Wonder Woman's sister Nubia, and discusses the importance of recognising and embracing your power. Jordan, who works at Wieden + Kennedy, has been behind many ads that we see daily, including ads featuring Lebron James, and notable black women in sports.

Hear us talk about:

Forging partnerships. [9:41] | Having productive conversations and disagreements without breaking a relationship. [14:23] | Having your powers acknowledged: “Stop hiding your powers and step into it.” [21:01] | Holding onto your sense of power, identity, and politics in environments where there are forces pulling you away from them. [23:38] | Creating and building a community for other women of colour. [25:16] | “It is an act of activism to be 100% yourself.” [27:53]
