Angry Black Woman

My brotha in struggle and Lead Obamavangelist 'T' from the very smart progressive blog, The Republic of T, has a sweet ass smack-down of the Angry Black Woman narrative currently dominating the conservative, and now mainstream, media cycles about Misha.

A tasty tidbit:

"I’ve notice something. No one seems to seems to question whether the angry white men that swept Newt Gingrich and the Republican majority into power in 1994 were justified in their anger. It’ assumed that whatever they’re angry about they have a right to be angry about."

"But not so for the so called 'angry black women.' Their anger is somehow less 'real' and less justified. Perhaps that that’s because being angry is a privilege in this culture. Anger, if you are a minority, is dangerous. If you are a woman, or a person of color, gay, etc., your movements must be calm, your voice must be modulated, and your anger must ever show."

Do yourself a solid, Obamabots, jet over to T's and read the complete essay. It is a mind-opening piece of work. I would expect nothing less of this brotha.

Asante sana, Terrance, for coming to the defense of Misha. Much love to you and yours.
