“I’m lucky in a sense; my parents have never really shielded me from things. They’ve been up front and real about my identity – who I am as a person, my culture, my background – on both sides being an African-American woman and also Caucasian,” Zendaya told the mag. “I have pride in where I’m from, and I think that’s where my inner strength started.”
