I am an 8th grader at the Little Red School House and Elisabeth Irwin High School. My social justice topic is Women's Portrayal in the Media. We named our group "Pretty in Pink" to show that the media makes people think that women are supposed to look a certain way, pretty, and that they are supposed to act a certain way. I am interested in this topic because it has such a serious and direct effect on myself and everyone else in my life. I think that if people stopped worrying about how women look or are "supposed" to look, so many problems that we face as a society would be so much easier to fix.
