Cannes Lions' final main stage panel discussion featured actress Issa Rae.
Rae said that the media is showing an unrealistic portrayal of black people.
The Hollywood Reporter says Rae called out the media for "harmful" messages.
"For black women, I tend to find it harmful that we have all the burden on our shoulders, to uphold this specific image. You see them as the strong, flawless, fierce type of woman. And even on a great day, I am never those things.
