OUR STORY
Révolutionnaire began with a mission to democratize dance and revolutionize "nude" apparel and has since evolved into a larger movement to celebrate diversity and empower dreamers to be revolutionary.
As a lifelong dancer, Howard University student Nia Faith Betty saw the need for diverse apparel offerings that went beyond the limited nude colorways to suit dancers of all backgrounds.
After spending countless hours dyeing dancewear to match her skin tone, she knew it was time for change and launched Révolutionnaire’s inclusive clothing line that served and empowered all to celebrate the skin they’re in.
Inspired by their impact within the dance industry and passion for social change, Nia, alongside her sister and co-founder, Justice, made it their mission to build a social network for changemakers to access the community, tools, and information needed to scale their impact.

Together with a team of 30 Gen Z activists, organizers and community leaders, Justice and Nia launched Révolutionnaire, the social network in June 2021. The platform is a destination for young people to learn, connect and take action on the causes they care about.
It builds on Justice and Nia's lifelong experiences and commitment to activism, service, and representation.
