For kids born in the 80s and 90s, they would definitely know Karyn Parsons from the teen series, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. After playing the role of Hilary Banks for six years, she moved to do nonprofit work. She is the founder of Sweet Blackberry, a non-profit organization focused on teaching children about black history. Recent reports, however, state that she has returned to acting. She is playing a role in Sweet Thing, a movie that is expected to be released in 2020.
