12. Ava DuVernay
If you don’t know who Ava DuVernay is, you’re definitely missing out. She is one of the best directors we have right now and you should pay attention to her work. She’s always highlighting pressing issues and uplifting the black community as well as educating those around her.
Her film, A Wrinkle In Time, is going to be a game changer, if you ask me. The original story written by Madeleine L’Engle follows the story of Meg Murry and has inspired girls for generations. And if the trailer for her version shows anything, it is that this is going to be one movie where us girls (and even young boys) are going to be inspired to be the best they can be.
But that’s thanks to her. She is constantly uplifting people and making them feel special. Even a like on Twitter from her feels special because she just inspires us all so much! So do we put all our trust in Ava DuVernay? Yes. She hasn’t let us down and I don’t think she will anytime soon. She’s amazing, inspirational and one of the best female directors out there. Basically, she’s pretty badass and we’re lucky to have her.
