We know—we’re obsessed. And clearly, we’re already missing Grown-ish way too much, since we’re giving you a day full of Chloe, Halle and, now, a double dose of Yara.

Malcolm X told no lies when he said that the most disrespected person in America was the black woman.

She’s Grown-ish! Happy 18th Birthday, Yara Shahidi!
Here at The Glow Up, we hate to play favorites, but we’d be lying if we said we didn’t have a very special place in our hearts for actress-activist-“it” girl Yara Shahidi.
