Culture Quote by Ayo Edebiri

“I have so many memories of watching 'Oprah' with my mom after school and really feeling united with the country. Her show was such a window into culture at large for me because I grew up pretty religious; I was sneaking a lot of TV. But that was one of the things that I could unabashedly watch.” quote by Ayo Edebiri
