Our media, like a large corporation of Disney, only show one culture and love story. I think our society needs to move forward to incorporate more cultural representations in a culturally appropriate manner without any cultural appropriation. I think a first step to accurate representation is changing who has the power to create movies and media in our society. Many directors and founders of corporations, people with power, are white cis-gendered males. Giving minority voices power to influence our society is essential to, as you said, giving representation to all women of color.

Through white masculinity there are heteronormative gendered norms that have been pushed upon us and no one but cis straight able-bodied, neurotypical men benefit from these relationship norms.
