Alright, so we’re cheating on this one a little bit since Gabby is only 16. But she’s close enough and we just couldn’t make this list without her. Gabby captured our hearts as we watched her compete in the summer Olympics on the gymnastics team. We were already rooting for Gabby as the lone black girl on the team; but we became even more fond of her once we learned her story of discrimination and sacrifice. We all celebrated, and in my case, shed a few tears when Gabby won gold for her performance in the individual all-arounds.
