In “My Black Skin”, 25 Afro-German personalities proudly show what cannot be overlooked: their dark skin. But this book is more than just an illustrated book – it is also a guide to success. The protagonists from politics and business, art and culture, science and sport report on how they made it to the top. They are role models and show that you can achieve anything, regardless of skin color and origin, if you only believe in yourself. YES I CAN! The idea for “My Black Skin” came from Dayan Kodua, who came to Kiel from Ghana as a girl. She is the first black “Miss Schleswig-Holstein” and is now a successful actress. Dayan Kodua was supported by photographer Thomas Leidig, who artistically staged the portrayed personalities.
