Session 12: Representation Matters pt. 1


Listen Later

Fun things happening around here this week! We're moving to a weekly episode, which means we can bring you more great content! This week, we're talking about why Representation matters, and how important it is for us to see ourselves (our race, our gender identity, our core identities) reflected in the world around us. 

Though there are a lot of different groups we could discuss, we're choosing to focus on:

  • Representation of/for women
  • Representation of/for people of color
  • Representation of/for those with LGBTQ identities
  • Representation of/for those living with disabilities
  • You can listen to the PBS NewsHour Clip referenced in the podcast here: Why on-screen representation matters, according to these teens | PBS NewsHour
