They were also joined by other family members such as his 17-year-old big brother, Zaire and baby sister Kaavia. Zaire Wade shared his public support on Instagram for his younger sister, writing: “Love you lil bro no matter what.” Just beautiful! Sadly, there will always be people who take issue with the Wades supporting Zaya, accusing the couple of encouraging “a lifestyle” on a child so young.” But thankfully, there were more people flocking to Twitter commending the parents for loving their child unconditionally and supporting their son for being who he is and living out loud. In addition, Black LGBTQ folks shared their own stories and stressed why it’s important for Black parents to not turn their backs on their children for coming out. Take a look: ***Editor’s Note: Due to Zaya’s recent coming out as trans, all past stories that were written about her have been updated to reflect her correct gender identity and pronouns.
