Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s 18-year-old daughter, Zahara Marley, embarked on her university journey last year, making headlines when her emotional departure from her famous parents was captured in a video released by the university’s vice president for student affairs, Dr. Daryl Holloman.

In a recent video shared by Essence, Zahara reveals an unexpected decision she made during her college experience.

The footage captures her joyfully dancing on stage during her initiation into Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA), the first historically African-American college sorority.

Essence’s Instagram post congratulates Zahara on being accepted into AKA, noting that she has become the first Black sorority member with a very familiar face.

The post also highlights the noteworthy women who have been part of the AKA sorority, including director Ava DuVernay, Vice President Kamala Harris, civil rights icon Rosa Parks, author Toni Morrison, journalist Robin Roberts, and actress Jada Pinkett-Smith.

As part of the initiation ceremony, Zahara proudly declares her name and origin, emphasizing her status as an AKA Sister and seventh in line for new initiation into the sisterhood.

The post expresses anticipation for Zahara’s contributions in the name of sisterhood, scholarship, and service to humanity.

In the comments section, emotions run high as people commend Zahara for staying connected with her roots and race despite being raised by white parents.

The heartwarming response appreciates the efforts of white parents, particularly Angelina Jolie, in ensuring that their Black children have a cultural experience.

The sentiment is summed up by one commenter: “This girl has been raised to connect with her roots as much as possible. Very commendable.”

The overall sentiment is one of heartwarming support and well-wishes for Zahara’s college journey, recognizing the significance of her commitment to cultural identity and service.
