When Zendaya saw the important conversations taking place after the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery<\/a>, she wanted to highlight the activists diligently working to fight against systemic racism. So she reached out to Black Lives Matter cofounder Patrisse Cullors, who took over her Instagram account to discuss social injustices and different ways of taking action<\/a>. Now, the duo have teamed up again for InStyle<\/strong> magazine’s September issue, in which the 23-year-old Euphoria<\/strong> star — who modeled clothes all from Black designers for the spread<\/a> — spoke to Patrisse about the meaning of activism, her inspirations, and upcoming projects<\/a>, including her surprise film Malcolm & Marie<\/strong> with John David Washington<\/a>. Keep reading to see the first-time Emmy nominee<\/a>‘s standout quotes, then be sure to grab the September issue of InStyle<\/strong>, available on newsstands, on Amazon, and for digital download on Aug. 21.<\/p>\n On why she connected with Patrisse for the Instagram takeover:<\/strong> “I didn’t know what I could do to help. And that’s when I reach out to people like you. Because at the end of the day, I’m just an actress, you know? And I don’t pretend to be anything other than that. If I don’t know something, then I ask people who are actually on the front lines doing the work. I’m up in the bleachers, not on the field. So I always think, ‘How can I cheer you on and be a part of something greater than myself?'”<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> BREA CUBIT<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
\nOn her hopes for future projects:<\/strong> “I think this is a new chapter for me. There are a lot of people learning how to be creative during this time and learning how to take a leap while doing it safely in quarantine. It was interesting to experience that with my film Malcolm & Marie<\/strong>, and I’m really proud of that. I also have so many beautiful projects to look forward to. How the world is going to be able to see them, I don’t really know. But that’s when it’s time to get even more innovative and figure out how we are going to exist in this industry with this new world.”<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
