Just like any other drug, I think pain could be addicting and it's so hard to get out of that because you're so used to living in that dark for so long that once you see a lot you're like,

um, I heard I don't want to do this so you go back into the darkness and it's just going past that pain.

Everyone, it's so great to be back with you and I can't wait to introduce you to my next guest.

We've been trying to get our schedules to align for so long we finally made it happen and I'm so excited to speak with her.

She's got an incredible, incredible series of things happening in her life and I'm excited for her to share them with you.

Her name is Francia Reyesa and she's an American actress and activist and she's currently starring in free forms wildly successful,

Grownish and has so many more exciting things coming as well. Francia, thank you so much for being here. Thanks for having me. That's a great intro. Oh, thank you. I appreciate that.

Well, I was going to add that even though we've only met once before this, I've followed you on Instagram since you've made me laugh.

You've moved me. You've made me feel that you're so involved in so many meaningful efforts. Yeah. And so thank you Instagram.

Oh, for letting us connect more and for keeping us connected. Yeah. Yeah. You've been very active and it's great.

I appreciate all the comments that you give back and saying with you. I mean, all your stuff is super inspirational.

I'm like, yes, I can do it. Let me get up.

No, thank you. And you're, I think I said it on the day, like you're one million celebration. Oh, God.

So, Francia, if you haven't seen it, you have to go through Instagram profile. You have to scroll back to when she hit a million

and she did this dance to celebrate. Yeah. And by the time we filmed, I'd already been dancing for two hours, I was so tired.

And I'm like, wow, I'm not 14 anymore where I can just keep going. Yeah.

But it's not I did happen. Yeah. Somehow. Somehow. You didn't skip anything. Yeah. No, you're awesome.

And I'm so excited for you. I saw the art skill in variety the other day. Yeah. This is incredible.

Yeah. I'm very excited about it. I can't believe I didn't even know about the story just to kind of elaborate.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I want to hear what about it. Well, in 1947, California became the first day to desegregate all school

things to the Mexican American family. And people don't really know about that. Unless, you know, you study Chicano studies or

really look into our history and brown versus board of education is really the only piece of history that we know with desegregating schools.
