I can not stop sobbing. Black lives matter because only a black man would be pulled over at gun point for MISSING A STOP SIGN. His 90 year old grandmother has fully broken me. WHEN IS THIS ENOUGH

While this superhero, character, & my process of writing her debut represents many ‘firsts’... the one I’m most proud of is cultural:
The first Ethiopian or Eritrean superhero EVER! 🦸🏾♀️🇪🇷🇪🇹
Kelly Olsen is an intersectionally marginalized character. Black, gay, and a woman. She is important. And I feel honored to play her. I will fight harder for her and the visibility of these characters in media. I hear you all. And I take it very personally ❤️ Love you guys 🥰
My mom immigrated to this country & always wanted to open her own Ethiopian restaurant. This was her life long dream, but instead she sacrificed everything. In my first tv writing episode, my character walks out of an Ethiopian restaurant, with my mom’s name on it. Selamawit ❤️
There is a spectrum of racism. And today we see, it starts with Amy Cooper and ends with George Floyd. It is ALL toxic. The next time a black person tells you of racism believe them. Don’t ask for proof, ask how to help, and stand by their side in that change.

Please be kind ❤️ Please understand the difference between actors and characters. Love you all (even those who choose to say hurtful things). Let’s do better here. Ok back to eating croissants and playing with my dog. Here’s George with a hot water bottle to calm you 😂😘
A child in a Supergirl costume salutes iconic Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a champion of equality and women's rights, who is lying in repose at the Supreme Court.
You are not alone and asking for help is brave ❤️

First time shooting on location not on Supergirl in downtown Vancouver today (and tomorrow) and it was WEIRD. So different! Miss seeing all of the smiling faces at the end of each shoot day🥺🥺🥺
Love you ❤️
Oh and Black Lives Matter.
Oh and arrest the officers who murdered Breonna Taylor.
Oh and stay hydrated and get some sleep bc we are just beginning to fight for justice and equality. Change is coming.
Finally saw that scene where Alex comes to tell Kelly she wants to help her with her trauma and triggers and teared up watching Chyler’s performance as I did when standing there shooting it. May we all have unwavering love that loves us through our pain and past 😭❤️
We came in on the same episode as a couple of complicated siblings and go out on the same episode in the finale. Love ya

gaining you as a friend was a highlight of this show!

I don’t even know how to say this but I lost my best friend and soul mate a couple weeks ago. George was at the dog park and while playing hit the side of his head on the ground. I knew something wasn’t right and as…

deserves justice. Don’t let people distract you with nonsense we still have work to do❤️❤️❤️Love you all thanks for fighting the good fight
You all have posted so much incredible Guardian fan art for YEARS. Which made it harder that I couldn’t tell you I would become Guardian!! Will you please share those art pieces below. Wanna do something special for it:)
What do we think of
#CrisisOnInfiniteEarth
I took 0 photos except this photo of Tom&George in a bar😂🐶what did we think of Lucifer appearing,Kelly’s guardian shield, the planet...well u know😬 hope you all are enjoying all of the shows!My favorite was having Tom&Meaghan in town!
@people
Let’s stop allowing apologizes for how you THINK we feel as opposed TO YOUR ACTIONS, ESPECIALLY with racism. Enough enabling actresses that can’t take real accountability. BC so many black actresses are bending to make them feel comfortable & staying painfully silent doing it.
Got a call from Supergirl Production ‘Your Jane the Virgin castmates sent flowers to the studio to congratulate you on your writing”
Me: WHAT🥺🥺🥺
I LOVE YOU

feeling the love in another country, how lucky am I. THE BEST friends a gal could ask for❤️❤️
This is my brilliant, eloquent sister
@NicoleAMaines
when I want to burn the house down she continually educates in the most strong clear way. I admire you and I love you Nikki
I will always fight along side you ❤️
The true highlight of shooting this show is getting to meet you all after we wrap. All that this character means to you is how I feel about you all🥺❤️❤️❤️
You can’t tell me representation doesn’t matter. You can’t tell me media including art doesn’t control the narrative of how we look at others and ourselves

If talking shit is backing a black lead actress on a series that’s gotten vile hate for years, I feel good about it thanks 💁🏾♀️
@Adee_9
You are never too sensitive. Every feeling you have matters, if someone can’t honor that and at least acknowledge hurt...they don’t deserve you 💛
Should we do ONE MORE SURPRISE?! Guardian stepping into being a superhero tonight calls for it! Going live at 4PM PST with
