Aja was one of the honorees at last night’s Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards in Beverly Hills, CA! She was honored for her work in the industry along with fellow actresses Yara Shahidi, Janelle Monae and Isse Rae. The event was attended by some amazing women, including Viola Davis, Alfre Woodard, Gabrielle Union, Tracee Ellis Ross, and lots more.

I’ve added lots of photos to the gallery and if you’d like a behind the scenes look at the event you should definitely check out this moment (a collection of Tweets, pictures, and videos) I created on Twitter. Congrats to Aja for the wonderful honor!
