Zendaya Coleman Batman?

20 year old Zendaya Coleman is someone that I see as a Batman like figure. Throughout the novel all Batman wanted was to fight for justice and prevent crime in Gotham City, Zendaya although often seen as nothing but a Disney star is very outspoken about issues that are affecting the country.  She is a huge activist for the Black Lives Matter movement which is to inform others of police brutality and unfair treatment towards African Americans. In 2016 she caught the attention of Beyonce and appeared in her Lemonade video which was to empower black women. She is willing to fight against racial stereotypes like at the 2015 red carpet for the Academy Awards Giuliana Rancic a fashion critic suggested Zendayas dreadlocks might smell like "patchouli oil or weed"  to which Zendaya responded with "to me, locs are a symbol of strength and beauty, almost like a lion's mane."
