2. Yara Shahidi
Another starlet that also finds herself on both lists is Yara Shahidi. Shahidi not only has been an embodiment of diverse fashion, she has grown to become one of the most prolific voices of her generation at only 16-years-old. Speaking out on a variety of social issues that affect us all and leading the call-to-action for many, Shahidi is definitely one to watch out for in 2017. It is without doubt that the Black-ish star will continue to educate, amaze and inspire well beyond the new year.
