Meet Nantale Muwonge CanvasRebel interview

CanvasRebel Interview Where I Speak About My NDE

Up until 2020 I used to have moments of existential dread where I just felt like I wasn't doing enough with what I know and what I have. I’ve always volunteered and recycled and done all the things that you're supposed to do to be a good human, but it just kept coming back. 
Then I was in a car accident that wrecked my life, but also kind of didn't. It forced me to look deeper at a lot of things. And of course I realized that I wasn't actually doing enough to make the world better.
I mentioned this in my CanvasRebel interview because there's nothing sexy about the way Black Girl PR™ was born. Black Girl PR™ was borne out of fire, it's the fire that fuels me. That's something I think people need to know. Read the interview here.
