Being an “Angry Black Woman” with Brittany J. Harris and Valda Valbrun

Season #1 Episode #6

Valda Valbrun and Brittany J. Harris explore the common stereotype of the Angry Black Woman and how it perpetuates marginalization and oppression. All too often Black women who dare to express legitimate anger about microaggressions or worse treatment are subjected to the “tone police” who dismiss their concerns because of the delivery. Valda and Brittany share their lived experiences as professional Black women who have encountered criticism for their expressiveness, even when it is not anger. They raise awareness of this often subtle phenomena that impedes Black women’s progress in the world and how to address it.
