I think that the contributions you have made in the Hip Hop and Beauty sections are great! Providing examples as to how Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion received backlash over their song WAP demonstrate to the reader how these women were held at a different standard compared to male artists. To further emphasize your point, you could add some additional sources where the reader can see that this type of backlash is common. Providing a link to the tweets made James P. Bradley and DeAnna Lorianne would also be helpful so the reader themselves can see it is something they actually said and it is not a lie. For the Working in the Media section, try to find some statistics that demonstrate how underrepresented African American women are in the media. These statistics can either be of how many African American women are part of the entertainment community (whether they are actresses, singers, comedians, etc) or how many of them have a job behind the scenes in media (such as writers or producers). Representation of women is already small in media and entertainment, but it is significantly less for women of color (especially for African American women). Other comments: Minor grammar mistakes to fix. Overall, I think that you have a good start to your page!

I think this is a decent article, yet I'm having a hard time following what your point really is. For example, the heading is "African Americans misinterpretations in different media," the wording is really awkward and it's hard to follow. Also, while I know this topic is probably personal to you, I would be careful with potentially biased language. For example, you say "such media representation is almost always in a negative light." Also, I think it would be very beneficial to speak on the BLM movement and what they are doing to fight back corrupt media portrayals of African Americans. How BLM is portrayed in the media could also be a great additional point on the page. Browan1 (talk) 18:32, 2 December 2020 (UTC)Brooke Rowan, December 2, 2020
