Shankar Jalota
Shankar Jalota has vitiligo, the same condition as model Winnie Harlow. He was ashamed of it throughout his youth and attempted to disguise it as much as possible, but as he grew older, he learned to accept and even enjoy his differences. If that’s what you’re into, then go for it; Shankar is a spokesperson for positive body image.
Winnie Harlow and Shankar Jalota are representatives and role models for not just international models but also ambassadors and role models. Their efforts have helped raise awareness of vitiligo and teach individuals to accept what is different about them. It’s biological for us to like and understand people who resemble us biologically, but these figures educate our society to embrace individuals of all shapes and colors.
