As the Creator of Black Girls Learn Languages, I provide
information on multilinguals of the African Diaspora worldwide as well as
language learning content, resources and tips. I bring more than 20+ years of
language study including varying degrees of fluency in different languages,
experience living and working abroad in multilingual office environments and
international traveling expertise to this space.
Prior to starting Black Girls Learn Languages, I started La Deutsche
Diva, a bilingual plus size lifestyle and fashion blog with a
worldwide audience and presence across various social media platforms. All
posts were in English + German and about a variety of things as it relates to
travel, beauty and fashion including reporting on various Plus Size Fashion
events taking place within the U.S. and in Germany.
As the creator of La Deutsche Diva, I have been featured
in navabi's The Style Curve publication as
one of their Plus Size Experts To Follow + Their Best Tips, which has been
published in various languages with exposure in Germany, UK, Norway, Belgium
and other countries . As a model in the Bremen Edition of the Body Love
Campaign, my likeness has appeared in another of navabi's publications as well as the
Bremen edition of the German newspaper Bild.de (both in print and
online), Anbou.de, DessousDiary, as well as various blogs on
the internet. I've also appeared in Plus Model Magazine's coverage of Full Figure Fashion
Week 2015. As a result, I gained a wide range of readership
worldwide, most notably from the U.S. and Europe.
In my spare time, I attend multicultural events that as well as
fashion and makeup industry events. I also like to volunteer in and support
efforts that foster cultural exchange, as well as raise awareness for
multilingualism among black women.

Hi Shahidah! Love this page. Could you tell me where you found the info about Lupita Nyong'o speaking Italian? I'm working on some research and can't seem to find this information anywhere else. Thanks so much! Marina (a fellow Foreign Language Enthusiast.)
