Don’t Miss This Global Webinar: Vitiligo in Pop Culture
Representation matters. And when it comes to vitiligo, the world is just beginning to understand how powerful, personal, and political visibility can be. Join us for a conversational and inspiring webinar that takes a deep dive into how vitiligo is portrayed in movies, music, gaming, and social media – and why that portrayal matters more than ever.
