Outcome, My Main idea: Representation of minorities in modern/mass media -…
Outcome
What frustrates me
Lack of representation in modern day media(eg. lack of minority representation- BIPOC, LGBTQ+, roles of some minorities being played by people who are not a part of that minority even tho there are actors/people who are, and are just as qualified and available)
How western countries (eg. USA) focus and highlight on the problems that poorer countires have but forget about their own people who are seriously struggling.
Sophie: I agree, the concept of being prideful in you country and its accomplishments can be harmful because it can make people ignorant to what is happening with in their country, such as with New Zealand priding itself on being a place of equality when racism and homophobia are prevelant

Gender equality: Women still being seen as 'less' than men. Some countries still only having a women's worth dependent on the men in her life (eg. if she is married, has a boyfriend, her dad). Women having to be careful with what they say and to who, before something happens. Women being blamed for mens inability tp control themselves and the lack of victim support of SA and how they are treated in the court.
Kayla: As a girl myself, I have been restricted from things that I love doing because of my gender - which I find very stupid and annoying. This happens a lot in religions and just how people categorize women and men - its toxic. A lot of people, countries and religion are still stuck back in time.
Society telling men that showing emotions /being emotional is 'bad' or unattractive; causing some men to not be able to process their emotions properly which could result in violence or anger. Women being told that when they are being 'rude' a man would be told that he is forward or knows what he wants.
Capitalism- nothing more, nothing less; just capitalism and how people will do whatever it takes to keep it(and to get rich)

POC still not being welcome in white majority countries (such as America)- despite the fact that in many of those countries, the same people trying to kick them out are technically immigrants.
Award ceremonies (eg. Oscars, sports awards) still separating awards out by gender- such as best female actress or sportswoman of the year.
