Listen "representation matters"

Episode Synopsis

In this conversation, I talk about my personal experience with representation in film, social media, and pop culture. I talk about how it's affected me growing up and why we should still be working towards more representation. 
I recommend watching : how hollywood demonizes ultra-femininity. - YouTube to get a better understanding of the pretty vs. smart girl trope that I mention. This video explains it more in depth and gives great examples. 
NOTE: This is my PERSONAL experience and opinions. I recognize that my experience and thoughts may be completely different from yours. I hope that I can eventually open up the conversation to other guests so that they can talk about their experiences as well.
