What’s your Converse_X_ 2020 goal?

My goal is to be more. Be more involved in the art community, be more involved in the design community, and just really represent more of what Converse is to me. I want to be a great representative of the LGBTQ community here in the Philippines, because right now we’re really struggling for our rights, what we are in society. I am very grateful to Converse for giving me this platform to spread my message. – Dora
