Hey y’all! I wanted to let you know another one of my series for my blog is gonna be “Angry Black Women Chronicles.” Yes, I’m Black. Yes, I’m a Woman. And YES, I’m mad as hell!
I have every RIGHT to be mad as hell! I’ll throw a frozen water bottle at the back of a nigga’s head right now!
According to Harvard Business Review, “Angry Black Women” is “This pervasive stereotype characterizes Black women as more hostile, aggressive, overbearing, illogical, ill-tempered and bitter.”
Why was my dumbass about to do an in text citation? I am not in college anymore, I refuse!
This stereotype does harm us, it really does. But on the other hand, yes, I’m aggressive. Yes, I’m ill-tempered. Because y’all keep playing in my fucking face so I have every right to be!
So this series is made for my black ladies (biracials are included, but know your place) who have been played with, mistreated, abused, and everything under the sun to express the bullshit we face on a daily basis. How intersectionality has been whooping us on the regular.
I wanted to make this series so I can talk about the shit that pisses me off, which has been a lot of things recently. Yes, I’m an Aries sun, before you even ask. I wanna invite- fine! I’m a Scorpio Moon with a Taurus Rising! You got my big 3 now! Can I get back to the topic now?!
I wanna invite you beautiful ladies- yes, you 🫵🏾 you are beautiful, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise or I’ll beat your ass. Ok, I can’t see you. Doesn’t matter because I’m all seeing and shit so I know you are! I want to invite y’all to talk about in the comments what currently got you mad as hell? If you are not a black/biracial woman, you are welcome to follow along and engage, but remember:
This is a safe space for you to express your thoughts and anger without the fear of being stereotyped. Hell, let’s lean into that shit. We can’t wait on these motherfuckers to validate our anger. Your anger is VALID! Our emotions, our anguish, our tears, they’re all VALID!
So yes, I’m an angry black woman and I have every motherfucking right to be.
This stereotype was created to invalidate our reactions and feelings towards our own injustices. Instead of rejecting it, I’m going to own it. Y’all don’t deserve happy, nice, shitting rainbows out of her ass Chrissi. Y’all killed her.
I would love for these posts to allow us to build a community where we are seen, heard, and understood. Not being mansplained to and not being told to watch our tone. If the comment section is just rants, venting sessions, and people responding back positively, even with some advice! Even if I don’t have words I can tell you, hopefully someone does! I’m not the Messiah! I’m not perfect at all, which is pretty damn obvious. I still have my various issues to work on. If I can’t help you, the least I can do is listen and offer a platform for your voice to be heard.
I’m also thinking maybe doing Q and A’s or starting a little Twitter community or a community somewhere. I don’t fucking know. I would love some suggestions. Shit, maybe a Discord but I be barely working discord, I’m not even gonna lie to you but I will try if people are here for it!
Go ahead and fire off your thoughts in the comment section below or if you wanna DM me, I will post my linktree below:
I was really about to sit here and type out all my socials like a jackass, but I remembered I made a linktree for a reason! If you follow me, I’ll follow back. I ain’t no celebrity. Maybe I’ll try to go live and do an Q and A’s and/or advice sessions on there. I’m still figuring things out!
Aight, I’m done yapping….for now. Hey, y’all should know at this point that I never shut up. I’ll be in my casket, still talking my shit.
I’m hoping this really works and I love y’all, always, for reading and supporting this lil blog of mine. ❤️
I feel the same way
