We need more stories like this to be revealed. These “Hidden Figures” we never knew about have done so much that we can’t even imagine. And noone knows about them! People need to know their heroes. This is one more story , where we see the miracle when a black person is given a chance to shine. Incredible story. I want a movie about this ,too.

About Limit(less): Limit(less) is a photography project by Mikael Owunna documenting the fashion and style of LGBTQ African Immigrants (1st and 2nd generation) in diaspora in North America and Europe. The project seeks to visually deconstruct the colonial binary which states that one cannot be both LGBTQ and African. #LimitlessAfricans
