*Disney+ has released their newest holiday film “Disenchanted,” the sequel to “Enchanted,” which stars actresses and comedians Maya Rudolph and Yvette Nicole Brown joining the star-studded cast Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey, and more.

In celebration of the 15th Anniversary since “Enchanted” was released in theaters, the cast of “Disenchanted” recognized 7 young Black female change makers who are using their “magic” to help empower those around them and selected them for the Disney+ NextGen Sheroes. 

Per the official news release: Each recipient was recognized as real life princesses that use their crowns to inspire, impact and lead the next generations valiantly. Each NextGen Shero received gemmed crowns to represent their nobility and leadership, matching fluffy slippers to remind them that they will never walk this path alone, a necklace from mother to daughter embracing the impact of their bonds and how it has influenced each Shero to be the young ladies they are today.

Meet the 7 Disney+ NextGen Sheroes below.
