Former first lady Michelle Obama spoke on the importance of representation in a clip from an unreleased episode of her podcast, The Light Podcast, released exclusively to InStyle.

During the episode, which officially drops on Tuesday, Obama praised a few role models who regularly challenge the status quo.

"We've got so many role models. We've got Serena [Williams] now out there," she said, shouting out the tennis superstar who announced her retirement in August 2022.

She also reflected on the lack of representation she had as a child, highlighting the importance of figures such as Williams for today's youth.

Sounds like she’s been hittin’ the sauce or experimenting with drugs. You can tell by her hair. Little girls don’t have hair that drunk.

The amount of product in her hair though...I doubt little girls in this day and age could afford hair like hers. I’m all for teaching them to love their natural hair but I don’t see much of that

Some black women are insanely obsessive about their hair. It's part of a degraded culture ...

She makes a valid point. No one goes after Black women. Same deal with Asian men.
