So when Rayanne Graff told me my hair was holding me back, I had to listen, cuz she wasn't just talking about my hair. She was talking about my life.

For my representation paper I will be writing about Angela Chase from My So-Called Life. I think I'm going to talk about how when the show came out Angela was seen as so original and authentic in her struggle for acceptance and normalcy, but taken out of the context of the 90's and placed in today's media landscape, she only furthers the ideology that girls have to change who they are in order to get boys ( jordan catalano) to like them.
