Who is Scarlett Gray Smith?

“I’m always the one to tell Scarlett, I like your curly hair, I think you’re beautiful, I like your brown skin, you’re beautiful,” Haneline said. WBTW. “I’ve been doing that since she was born.” Those positive affirmations have followed Scarlett since she was a child.
“I know how negative people can be in real life, so I thought, okay, she has to know that she’s perfect and beautiful, so I thought I have to convey that to her,” Tiania said.
