Let’s talk about the Angry Black Woman trope. As Dionne Grayman explains, the “angry black woman” trope is a powerful tool that’s been used to dehumanize and silence black women for decades.
-
The dangerous stereotype of the black female as an angry, finger-snapping, emasculating, neck-moving, “oh no you didn’t”-spewing being has done deep harm.
-
Our anger has never been viewed as legitimate or warranted due to unfair treatment; instead, it’s been twisted into a pathology.
-
White women’s rage is given prominent position as a healthy exercise of power acquisition. It is their right to be angry in the face of their oppression. Given the same consideration, though, black women’s anger has to be tempered and detached from the fire and fury of white women to make other people feel comfortable. White women get to be mad and are not asked to explain why. Our anger has to pass the smile test.
-
As a result, black women have been limited in how we can forcefully and convincingly advocate for the issues that matter to us. Our female fury is seen as threatening, not radical ― as disconnected from reason, devoid of any intellectual underpinnings. The weight of being viewed as angry, often by white women, has prevented us from demanding an equal seat at the policymaking table.
-
Trust me: Black women have been in a legitimate rage for decades ― and invisible and silenced for just as long.
-
The story being told and sold about us as angry women is so pervasive it’s accepted as a cultural norm. Part of the problem and the reason why this trope persists is a lack of understanding regarding black women’s experiences. That is why this week in our Antiracist Everyday community on Patreon, we’ll be discussing how to respond when you see this trope being used.

Comment “We got each other” below if you believe in being antiracist everyday.

To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often. I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don't trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it.

Our life is frittered away by detail.. Simplify, simplify. Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible. Please visit our website for more information and to start your successful career in fitness! www.johnspencerellis.com/
There are two ways of exerting one's strength; One is pushing down, the other is pulling up. A non-doer is very often a critic-that is, someone who sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically about how the doers are doing. It's easy to be a critic, but being a doer requires effort, risk, and change. Please visit our website for more information and to start your successful career in fitness! www.johnspencerellis.com/
Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom. Behold the turtle. He only makes progress when he sticks his neck out. Footprints on the sands of time are not made by sitting down. The greatest pleasure in life is in doing what people say you cannot do. Please visit our website for more information and to start your successful career in fitness! www.johnspencerellis.com/
You may be disappointed if you fail but you are doomed if you don't try. A good coach encourages the same type of resilience in the people they work with. They encourage them to take risks. If the risk results in failure, they help all people to learn from the mistake and then go on to try another way.

If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score. Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.

All of our dreams can come true. If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self. It's never too late to be what you might have been. One of the most difficult things is not to change society, but to change yourself.
