As a showbiz child, 16 year old Jaden Smith has been one to step outside the box from his social media of twitter. He has about 5 million followers he has managed to show his wisdom side that most teens his age may not show as an eye opener.

As the first black female athlete to appear on “Sports Illustrated”  cover 13 year old Mo’ne Davis is a great example as a influential teen. Playing for the Little League World Series baseball is a big deal and as a role model for a female is one too, which is normally overpopulated as a all male sport.

Its more than likely that the daughters of Obama will take on a strong leading role such as their father’s, being very driven into working positively like their mother there are no hold backs from them willing to succeed.

Being on this list is one thing but being black and on this list is as a positive and influential as a teen is another. Great Work!
