WOMENkind: Aisha Thalia

“Curls. Consciousness. Curves. Vegan. Lover.” These are the words that Aisha Thalia uses to describe herself. If we were asked to take on the task of explaining what we see when we look at photos of her, we would easily conclude that she’s pretty and sexy with a head full of beautiful curls. After learning more about her, she’s so much more.

At first glance, Aisha Thalia looks like any other aspiring glamour model. She’s been featured in many magazines as well as commercials, films and music videos. What sets her apart is the girl has beauty and brains. Ms. Aisha completed her master’s degree in education from the University of Pittsburgh by age 22. That’s sexy, right?

Aisha passions include nutrition, vegan awareness, natural hair care, acting, and fighting against homelessness. Aisha also runs a youth environmental group and sponsors an art club for children. She uses her platform as an actress and activist to educate society about community as well as global issues. Not bad for a girl this hot.

In her own words, below are 22 answers/facts about her:

1. YES, I’m a mommy to a beautiful little girl. I respect her privacy and she won’t be posted on this account. She’s a vegetarian and very healthy. I wasn’t vegan yet when she was born. When I have more kids one day, ill still be vegan. I did breastfeed her.
