In a recent post, I tried to explain the perspective
of the “the angry black woman”. While no one can speak for every black
woman, I truly believe that much of their anger stems from the daily slights
that many black women experience. Certified Behavioral Consultant Deborah Smith Pegues tells us about the feelings of being “disrespected, disappointed, denigrated, rejected, taken for granted, abused, and unsupported”. These painful experiences evoke the hurtful, angry feelings that we all must learn to control and move beyond.
