hey guys
how's it going how are you guys doing
today
how's your week been i really wanna know
let me know
down below my name is meghan but you can
call me megz
and for today's video
oh boy i am kind of going to
go into a little rant that i've been
wanting to talk about for
a while i think it's something that
needs to be
said and something that's been on my
mind
and so if you haven't noticed we are in
my bathroom because i'll be doing it and
get ready with me
while i rant about the subject
because i thought it would be more
interesting
i found it more interesting when i look
at get ready with me videos and their
talking about a subject that they
cared about and they're really
passionate about
you know what's that one girl she does a
get ready with me and she talks about
murder mysteries
uh anyways yeah i find that so
fascinating so that would be more
interesting to
get ready with me while I rant about the
subject
so i already washed my face with my
Rihanna fenty skin if you haven't seen
that video
go check it out my last video was on
fenty skin review
and the one thing i forgot to mention in
my video is that after you've done the
skincare your makeup goes on
so well like so smoothly okay i'm just
using
basic uh drugstore makeup i
hardly ever go into sephora
because it's expensive
so mostly everything i'm using some
drugstore
okay and i don't know if i want to do a
full face of makeup
it depends how long the rant is if i'm
ranting for longer than
i'll use more stuff but i don't think
it's that long of a rant
we'll see okay anyways you're probably
wondering
what i'm here to talk about and today's
subject is represention
in the media so
i'm applying a concealer by the way
so representation in the media
let's talk about that like i know
we've come a long way
from where we were like in the past you
know
every model and every add and campaign were
skinny white girls and
that was the whole thing that's all we
saw in all the ads
and everything commercials and all that
and i know we've come a long way from
that
and so today in almost every ad and
campaign and every advertisement like
makeup brand commercials i always see now
every size every skin color
basically everyone's included and i love
that
well almost everyone but i'll get that
in a second
and i love that yes i use my fingers to
apply
my concealer i use my fingers to apply
my concealer
oh sorry if that bothers you i just
do okay anyways
i love that now it's become the norm
to have every person
regardless of size of skin color or
background religion
to be represented in a ad campaign
or on commercial on tv on everything
right
not even commercial just like tv shows
movies you see it's so
it's much more diverse
but what i'm not seeing and what i'm
continuing to not see
is people with disabilities being
represented
what really started this was
um asos you know esos.com
that ad I don't know if you see it i see anytime I watch
youtube videos.com get 15 percent off
asos calm down i don't need clothes
anyways
i'm going on the foundation so yeah i'm
continually
not seeing people
continually not seeing people with
disabilities being represented in any
ads or
anything on any ad campaigns
commercials any tv and movies
anything really i'm not seeing that with
presentation for people with
disabilities and
i don't know why were in 2020 still
seeing
ad campaigns or beauty or clothing lines
or
whatever it is i don't see
a person with a disability in that ad
in that campaign in that commercial
i don't see that person i
kind of don't know why
like i know we can campaign for people
with
who are plus-sized
to be included into the represented by
these uh clothing lines and i know
people color really rally to be
included as well
and so they're included and people of all
sizes are included
and that's so great but what i don't see
is people with disabilities being
included
which kind of doesn't make sense like if
we
were talking about diversity would'nt we
want
every presentation to be included
regardless of age gender
ethnicity should'nt disability be
including in that if i feel like
who will not be included and it sucks
and
i don't know why because i know there
has to be a plethora
of people with a disability who have
disabilities who would
love to be included who would love to
model who
love to act would love to have all these
opportunities
but they're not getting them because of
their disability
and it kind of makes you think
of like how inclusive are we really if
you never see a person
with a disability on being represented
in anything
in the media in general like i see all
these ad campaigns and they're so
inclusive and they're so diverse you
know they have
everyone in the shape color ethnicity
like i said before that i'm not
seeing and not seeing people with
in the disability community being
represented and being shown
in the media and i think
it's something that has to be said about
something that needs to be changed
because i don't understand
why that is like i said before i know
there's probably tons of people who have
disabilities
who would love to be in media who would
love to model who would love to
you know be in this industry but they
they're not being chosen but not
being seen because
of that disability and i think it's so
wrong
and i don't know i think that needs to
stop and we need to change and we need
to
be more accepted and i know for a fact
that if a company
shows even one person
with a disability in their ad campaign
that would change everything would get
so much more customers
i find because the ad campaign would be
so diverse and you're like oh that's a
great company
to support you know this just be me
like i don't know
like when i was younger my aunt always
told me i should be a model because i'm
skinny and i always knew in the back of
my mind that that would never happen
because of my facial difference
would i love that opportunity a hundred
percent
but i know that's not
the reality it's not gonna happen
because my
facial difference and it sucks and i
think
we as a society needs to be more
accepted and we need to be more diverse
even
if we think we're really diverse now
obviously we're not I mean again i know
we came a long way from where we were
like i love that the norml now is to see
people with
every body type every skin color
and i love that i love seeing that but i
would love to see
the disability community being presented
also in the media
because right now it's really not and i
hardly see anyone
with a disability on the commercial an
ad campaign in the media in general
and you might say well
maybe there's a model who has autism or
someone has a mental disorder like a
disability that we can't
see and you're right maybe there is
people that in ad campaigns who have
disabilities that we can't really
see but i would love to see someone with
a visible disability
so i can be like oh wow that's so cool
that they're there without being
represented like
i feel like wow you're having people
with these inspiring things like oh
well they're on the commercial maybe i
can too or if i
saw someone with a disability in a
commercial i would present that brand
so much and i think a lot to do too
if there's if there's any brands
listening
take notes being more inclusive
like i said like many times before we
are we've come a long way even before
but i'm still not seeing that
representation for people
with disabilities in the media and it
sucks
and i think we need to
really advocate for that
because i don't understand like we're
all
beautiful people i don't know i don't
know and if
the reason is not because they're not pretty
like i know
the beautiful people who can be models
but they're not because of their disability
you know
yeah see i think that's all i have to
say and all i did was foundation
and cover up which is great because that's
all i
really do i mean and some
brown bronzer boxes
what do you call this bronzers
yeah so yeah that's my rant
i don't know all  i want to say and rant
about was how we're not really being
included in this new diverse group
that the media is portraying
i mean it is diverse group it is really
great to see
people of all ethnicities skin color
and still not seeing people with
disabilities being represented
and yeah that's my
that's my hot take on that subject
let me know down below what you think
about all this
what's your input on the subject
what do you think about this
have you seen any people with
disabilities in the media
recently if you have let me know maybe
i'm not seeing that
i don't know this looks really bad on camera
okay cool i'm really bad at makeup
so please don't judge my makeup skills
i'm trying my best okay to finish this
look off i'm just going to apply
a neutral lip a lipstick
it's by clinique it's a chubby stick
moisturizing lip color balm
my lips get dry easily so if i want to
put a
lipstick on has to be really moisturizing
and i found the clinique one is really
good it really
moisturizes your lips like all day
and yeah that's my look this is my
natural
look i usually go for it on
whenever i want to apply makeup
and thank god i'm actually going
somewhere today
well i'm going to the beach
so yeah
i don't do my eyebrows because
i don't really care that much like my
eyebrows are pretty thick
so i don't need to fill them in
thank you guys so much for tuning in and
to
listen to me rant about the subject i
think it's a really important subject
and a really important topic
to create awareness and
to advocate for yeah i just really
wanted to talk about it
because it's important to me someone
with a facial difference
that's all i have to say about this
thank you so much for watching
please like and subscribe to my channel
i really appreciate it
and i will see you in the next one bye
