Angelina Jolie and Zahara in New York

This past year, Zahara started attending Spellman College. "I’m going to start crying if I talk about today. I haven’t started crying yet so…hopefully, I can hold it together,” she said in a video after dropping off her daughter. Despite the fact that they’re no longer living together, the two make time for each other, and have been photographed on various trips together.

In a Time 100 talk, Jolie talked about Zahara and her ancestry, and how much she’s learned from being her mother. “My daughter is from Ethiopia, one of my children … And I have learned so much from her. She is my family, but she is an extraordinary African woman, and her connection to her country, her continent, is her own, and it’s something I only stand back in awe of,” she said.
