Lisane Basquiat, co-administrator of the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat and owner of Hera Hub Carlsbad and Shaping Freedom®, walked the runway Friday for Actively Black‘s New York Fashion Week event “This Is Not a Fashion Show” at Sony Hall in New York.

Joined by her children, Raymond Joseph Basquiat and Jessica Kelly Basquiat, the family modeled clothing from a new Actively Black collaboration with the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat. (watch) Lisane’s granddaughter, Miss Emma, 8, also walked in the show as a part of a segment honoring Ruby Bridges, who in 1960 became the first child to integrate an all white school in the south. Emma re-enacted Ruby’s first day at William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana, where she was met with insults and racial slurs. (watch)
