Kerry Washington

‘Scandal’ actress Kerry Washington shows off her “fun” side in the March/April 2015 issue of EBONY magazine.

From a press release:

Kerry Washington, Scandal star and activist, may be a Hollywood “it” girl, but she doesn’t shop images of her adorable baby to the tabloids or post pics of her handsome hubby on Instagram for #ManCrushMonday. That’s why it’s so refreshing to go behind the scenes with Washington and learn more about her personal passions, latest projects and carefully guarded family life in the double March/April issue of EBONY.

Washington also reveals to EBONY that she will not waver in her convictions when it comes to important causes, including the death of Michael Brown at the hands of police in Ferguson, Mo. She shares why she broke down #Blacklivesmatter on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards.

“I was really broken that morning,” Washington recounts of the off-the-cuff interview during which she shared the difficulty of being Black in America. “Watching that funeral, I was just broken. And I take all of who I am into a room. That’s where my mind was that day. I’m not going to let anyone segment me or make me exclude parts of who I am because they may be threatening.”
