Yara Shahidi Makes a Political Statement Without Saying a Word

Yara Shahidi definitely isn’t shy about using her platform to speak out for what’s right — but sometimes she lets her clothing do the talking.

“Word @melodyehsani #DefendDACA Spread the message follow #melodyehsani for the gear,” she posted to Instagram this a.m. (September 6) with a selfie of a political tee.

“The power of the people is greater than the people in power,” Yara‘s white tee reads, in small black cursive letters. It’s an understated yet bold way to make a statement about resisting the current administration.

Yara isn’t the only young celeb defending DACA: Lauren Jauregui, Rowan Blanchard, and The Fosters cast have all been outspoken against the measure.
