Hair Love
have decided to make a fanart of the 2020 Academy Award-winning Short Animation called “Hair Love.� The short simply demonstrates representation in a very sweet and emotional matter, while showing a Black family dealing with some day-to-day struggles, but with a bittersweet turn in the end. To me, this is a powerful example of representation in the media because of how it is BIPOC centered, while also dealing with themes that are not necessarily tied to race and ethnicity. It is important and empowering to highlight how any human being can go through and beat any kind of struggle.
