What Does It Mean to Be Represented?

Monica Murray Derr Episode 4

What is it that makes you see yourself in a fictional character? Or, what is it about a fictional character that makes you feel represented by them? I take issue with the popular understanding of representation in media in an episode that might get me in trouble if, you know, anyone were listening.
