Watch me tonight in this amazing short film, talking about the Islamaphobic bullying I get on social media.
Fantastic to be in the film with Munroe Bergdorf, the Black transgender model recently sacked by L’Oreal for her honest views on racism and white privilege, following the white supremacist attacks in Charlottesville.
Completely agree with her view that you either stand up against racism or you are with it. Watch and find out what it feels like.
It was strange watching the preview of the film on a big screen at the British Film Institute at Southbank, London. Will be on BBC I-Player afterwards.
Silent Roars’ airing at 10.25 pm on BBC Four Sunday 24th Oct, as part of ‘Listen to Britain’.
Four of the internet’s biggest female stars reveal how their followers are shaping them. Starring Mya-Rose Craig, Ella Grace Denton, Munroe Bergdorf, Elizabeth Farrell.
Produced by Maia Krall Fry, BBC, BFI, Wingspan Productions.

About The Author
Hi, I’m Dr. Mya-Rose Craig. I am a 19-year-old prominent British-Bangladeshi ornithologist, environmentalist, diversity activist as well as an author, speaker and broadcaster. At age 11 I started the popular blog Birdgirl, and at age 17 I became the youngest person to see half of the birds in the world.
Lyrical, poignant and insightful.’ - Margaret Atwood
This is my story; a journey defined by my love for these extraordinary creatures. Because large or small, brown, patterned or jewelled, there is something about birds that makes us, even for just moments at a time, lift our eyes away from our lives and up to the skies.
