because were legit talking.
When you watch the show and you see some ad-libbing, those are real conversations.
This show has that too, but it goes beyond that.
Ive personally learned so much from it.
I think this show really portrays why its important to be involved in our society.
Francia, what attracted you to this character?RAISA:One, Im a huge fan ofblack-ish.
As far as Ana, I didnt grow up Republican.
Ive been enjoying being part of this show.
Im so grateful Im here, and Yara has been waking me up and introducing me to awesome music.
Rather, we just [have] every character express their opinion.
A lot of what were addressing [ongrown-ish] is cultural this larger college culture.

So, it isnt necessarily at the forefront of the audiences mind until the story comes full circle.
We surround ourselves with people that, for the most part, generally agree with our basic values.
So, it did kind of push the boundaries of, How do you start a conversation?
How are you in a relationship with somebody you like as a human?
How do you respect their opinion?
The one-hour premiere ofgrown-ishairs Wednesday at 8 p.m. on Freeform.
