There’s something magnetic about a woman who owns her story, her roots, and her impact, and that’s exactly why Nia Miranda Nwosuocha is my Woman Crush Wednesday. She’s not just starring in G.R.I.T.S. (Girls Raised in the South), she’s redefining what it means to be a Southern Black woman on screen. From her fierce portrayal of Bria to her real-life work bringing solar power through her Eco Sistah platform to Kenyan schools, she’s got a whole read/rap-along book series coming for the kids called Let’s Go Eco! making sustainability fun and fly.
Nia is the kind of woman who inspires any woman to dream bigger and act bolder. She's now rocking her full name; Nia Miranda Nwosuocha, in honor of her late father. “My father always told me to carry the torch,” she says. And baby, she’s carrying it with fire. Bridging worlds, between Africa and the diaspora, between the hood and Hollywood, between legacy and possibility. And honestly? That’s the kind of energy I want to carry into everything I do.

Her Resume Is Giving Range, plus she’s been in national campaigns with over 15 million views. Nia’s not just booked and busy, she’s booked and brilliant.
Let’s talk roles:
Bria in G.R.I.T.S. (Girls Raised in the South); the roller‑skating drama queen with a heart.
Danielle in McGraw Ave; caught in a family betrayal that’ll leave you gasping.
Candace in A Verry Merry Hood Christmas; the most streamed Christmas film two years running.
Alycia in The Midas Code; giving ultimatums and unforgettable performances.
Role in S.W.A.T.; a community leader who’s had enough.
Why She’s Our WCW
Nia Miranda is the kind of woman who makes you sit up straighter, she’s an inspiration. Talent, heart, heritage, and hustle, she carries it all. She bridges the gap between Africa and its diaspora, the streets and Hollywood, the past and everything that’s yet to come.

She’s not just telling stories, she’s living one. And we’re lucky to witness it.
