#BlackGirlMagic came through at the United #StateofWomen Summit held on Tuesday. Hosted by the White House, the Summit rallied together women, girl bosses, unicorns and more to celebrate the incredible achievements women have accomplished, while also addressing the agenda for further equality.

Black girls were fan-girling over Black girls, celebrating each other, empowering each other and inspiring each other all down your timeline:

#StateofWomen What will you do today to change things tomorrow? Today I moderated a panel of activists and changemakers focused on advancing the progress of women and the community. Each of them shared purposeful and important stories from the ground and strategies for building true inclusive movements. Thanks to @whitehouse for inviting us to have this discussion. 📷 by @nbcblk via Twitter 👋🏾
