Black Girl Magic graced the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade when Ada Twist, Scientist made her historic debut at last Thursday's parade. Ada Twist, Scientist was introduced in 2016 as a book series written by Andrea Beaty and illustrated by David Roberts. The stories have expanded to a series on Netflix created by Chris Nee of Doc McStuffins, and produced by Higher Ground Productions, owned by President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama. In the series, this inquisitive little girl, Ada, trades in her play clothes for a lab coat as she conducts scientific experiments with her two best friends as they explore how the world around them works. On Thanksgiving, she set off on her first parade adventure along with Grogu (Baby Yoda) and Paw Patrol. With a pen tucked under her ear, and wearing her signature lab coat, Ada shows us the magic of science all around us. Hurrah for Black Girl Magic! Now girls all over can see themselves represented as scientists.
