Representation in the media: finding the beauty in diversity - Chloe Mallet

TEDxRedhillSchool 2020 Chloé is a grade 11 student at Redhill. She is an American-Ivorian 17 year old living in Johannesburg. She is an avid ballet dancer in her free time and vice chair of the social and civic committee at school. Chloé is passionate about film and the role diversity plays within it. She plays a key role in campaigns within school like Nelson Mandela day and Youth day. The media plays a key role in shaping how we see ourselves and can have a profound effect on children’s self image. The identity struggles of a woman of color are rooted in a lack of diversity in all aspects of life. Without strong role models, insecurities develop, creating limits to what women of color can achieve. This results in an endless vicious cycle, where society is the ultimate loser because women of color can’t realize their full potential. The cycle will only end when all women are represented and women of color embrace their unique beauty .
