Beautiful Black Women & Stereotypes; BE "The Angry Black Woman," DISMANTLE "The Strong Black Woman"

BE "The Angry Black Woman"

Black girl,

BE angry whenever you have every right to be. This stereotype only exists because people fear the day you decide to get angry enough to set boundaries, rise above the abuse, and defeat the enemy at their micro-aggressions.

This stereotype only exists to silence your voice and remove your privilege to defend yourself whenever someone mistreats you. That way, they don't have to face themselves in the mirror with their wrongdoings and can feel justified in their poor actions.

Don't shy away from the stereotype. Black girl, angry is good. Angry gets sh*t done. Embrace it so they'll know not to try you ever again. That's what they're afraid of; your power.

DISMANTLE "The Strong Black Woman"

Black girl,

This stereotype only measures how much abuse you can take before a mental breakdown. It exists to erase your vulnerability.

Dismantle this stereotype and stop placing everyone else's needs above your own.

You're killing yourself physically and mentally, day by day. You have nothing to prove to this society of people that haven't confirmed their loyalty to you, nor do you have to save them. No matter how much you break your neck to do for them, they'll never appreciate your hard work and effort anyway.

Take care of those who take care of you. Your "Black Girl Magic" is not for free. Be vulnerable unapologetically.

YOU ARE "The Beautiful Black Woman," accept it.

Black girl,

You were always the beauty standard. The only reason transparent people deemed themselves the beauty standard is because they couldn't possess your beauty naturally.

Most people hate you because you ARE Black. They can't be proud of it and hate you for it. They can't celebrate it.

They hate you because their entire existence was a mistake. You got your beauty, honest.

These false standards only exist because they were envious of your natural born elegance.

They're paying big bucks to look like you.

Your beauty is free.

Accept it.

You're beautiful

Educated

and you're talented.

Be proud to be a Black woman.

That's it. That's the post.
