About India
India Cade’s journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and purpose. Born in Ridgeland, South Carolina, and raised across many neighborhoods in Atlanta, Georgia, India’s childhood was marked by constant movement—attending four elementary schools, three middle schools, and two high schools. Despite the instability, she found strength in adapting, leading her to develop the tenacity she embodies today.
India earned her degree from Savannah State University, a pivotal experience that awakened her pride in her Black heritage and empowered her activism. Embracing the university’s motto, “You can get anywhere from here,” she advocated to preserve Africana Studies and fought against the potential loss of Savannah State’s HBCU designation.
In her senior year, India battled depression and found solace through an unexpected outlet—eyelashes. What began as a coping mechanism blossomed into a successful eyelash business, which she led for three years before selling it to pursue her calling: youth advocacy.
