Anok Yai is living the American dream. She has become the fashion face of her generation—a supermodel who is also an immigrant, daughter of South Sudanese refugees, and citizen of the United States. “Like Yai,” Vanity Fair’s José Criales-Unzueta writes, “I am an immigrant; unlike her, I did not grow up in the United States. But we share an indelible part of the American experience: This country afforded us the space and the opportunity to become. Our generation has a contentious relationship with Americanness and its symbols, which have been co-opted by a pocket of this country that does not always represent people like Yai or me—or those with less privilege and therefore less opportunity. A pocket that demonstrably does not want us here. But in Yai’s story, and in my own as I write this today, I see the realization of the dream we were both promised.” vanityfair.visitlink.me/bN9ou2

Wow. They were able to track down the slaves who built the White House. Y’all can never make me hate what our Ancestors Built. Happy 4th, Black America! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
