“Being called the voice of a generation is complicated,” says Yara Shahidi, the twenty year-old multi-hyphenate who has earned that powerful title as much for her pioneering work as a Gen Z activist as she has for her performances on the acclaimed sitcoms Black-ish and Grown-ish.

As the 2020 Presidential election approaches, it’s clear now more than ever that younger generations have the social and political power to shape the future they envision, and Shahidi is leading the way. I recently sat down with her to hear how she’s learned to hone her voice and to discuss the inextricable link between her personal and professional ambitions. Highlights of our conversation below.
