2016 is sadly shaping up to be a year that will be remembered for division and discrimination. With the UK having voted to leave the EU in July and now the US election looming, a message of togetherness is incredibly important and fervently needed.

Describing themselves as “the home for badass women” fashion and lifestyle blog Wildfang have never shied away from making bold statements; whether it’s daring fashion choices or world issues, they speak their minds and serve as a refreshing alternative to everyday news outlets. Their Stronger Together campaign launched on social media this week, reminding us that the issues being discussed and the people being elected may not directly affect us if we are not immigrants, women, gay or even if we’ll be alive to see the effects of global warming, however it will affect our neighbours and our communities, our family and friends, our colleagues and our future generations.

“What affects them, affects all of us.” – Wildfang

Immigration, women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, wage equality and the environment are all important issues that are being discussed not only in the US election, but around the world and this is why we should all care about who will be elected as the next US President. Who will stand on the world’s stage? Whose voice will be heard?

Breaking down these 5 issues Wildfang have created an important series of snapshots that illustrate the severe importance of each. Featuring real people, these photographs come to life and the weight of the world’s decision becomes increasingly apparent.
