A self-declared activist, Bronx born actress Kerry Washington has an astounding 2 million followers on Twitter. As Olivia Pope in ABC’s hit drama Scandal, Kerry Washington brought in “a new era of post-racial television, in which cast members are ethnically diverse but are not defined by their race or ethnicity” according to Tanzina Vega of The New York Times and equally won countless plaudits for her character’s dress sense.
