Does the media represent?
I don't believe the media represents me or my life. They don't know how it feels to be a 17-year-old African-American female and they never will. What really bothers me more than anything is how some African-Americans portray themselves. From hip-hop artists and videos, the African-American woman is displayed in a derogatory manner. So automatically that is how all African-American women are viewed. That is not how I conduct myself or how I plan to ever conduct myself. One African-American should not speak for the whole race.
