13 FROM SHERRY COLA This week when I was fi lming Good Trouble, I shared a beautiful on-screen kiss with Kara Wang. I challenge you to name another TV show that portrays love between two Asian women. I can’t believe how long I’ve waited to fi nally feel seen. I’m grateful to be able to tell these stories, and it’s all because of Freeform.

As a female Asian American bisexual immigrant, I’m often put in a box. Freeform lets me express all my layers at once. I’ve always wanted to celebrate the intersectionalities of who I am, and now I’m liberated to do so. I’m not the same person I was before this show. Thanks to Freeform, I’ve found my voice.

I hear people say Freeform is “woke” and “progressive,” but I say Freeform is “real.” Authentic experiences that happen to authentic people – that’s what’s being illustrated in the programming. Nobody in the audience feels left out. That’s a phenomenal thing. It doesn’t just stop at LGBTQ+ and BIPOC issues. From people with disabilities to people dealing with mental health, all marginalized communities are highlighted on this network. The power of inclusivity goes a long way.

Freeform practices what they preach. Nothing’s perfect, but the willingness to learn and improve is all it takes. We talk the talk, and we walk the walk. Thirty years from now - when I’m having a family meeting with all of my Emmy awards - I won’t forget that the fi rst time I was a series regular, I felt at home. Freeform has set the tone for the rest of my career, and I won’t take that for granted.
