Scandal!’s Brighton Ngoma On Living With Vitiligo! The actor is a great example of using your platform as a celebrity to raise awareness.
Taking to Instagram on World Vitiligo Day on Tuesday June 25, Brighton educated his followers on the condition and some of the misconceptions surrounding it. Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes the skin to lose pigmentation, resulting in discoloured patches.
“The Bishop and I. Ebony and….wait…i-vitiligo!!!! Get it? Thought you might… In case you’re wondering, my skin condition is known as Vitiligo. It’s not contagious, it’s not painful – it just means I might get the land back quicker…. KIDDING!!!! HAPPY WORLDWIDE VITILIGO DAY!!!!! (25 June),” he wrote on Instagram.
