Share this:

In this powerful talk, fashion publisher Maacah Davis shares with us the challenging position of being a creator of color. She challenges us as consumers to consider the media we consume and to demand diversity from our favorite brands.

Maacah Davis is committed to maximizing creative and professional capacities. She is the creative director and editor-in-chief of Belladonna magazine, Birmingham’s first fashion magazine. At the age of 19, Davis launched Belladonna to create a much-needed platform for Birmingham area talent. She also works to diversify fashion and photography by casting models who represent a wide range of the cultural and physical spectrum.

Originally from West Africa, Davis moved to Birmingham and attended Alabama School of Fine Arts. Davis started the publication while attending the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Davis was one of eight students selected to launch a startup at the UAB iLab, a partnership between the Innovation Depot and Collat School of Business.

She has been featured as a speaker for the A.G. Gaston Economic Empowerment Conference, Design Week Birmingham, and many other events that encourage innovation and female empowerment.
