Black Women : Mammy, Jezebel, Sapphire, or Queen? Stereotypes of the African-American Female

[Liberty]

WHEW! You speak volumes. This is the post of all post for me.

It is noteworthy that women of other cultures are fed harmful stereotypes that they must fight against too, But, they might not be as damaging as ours, imo. Think of the Italian mom, or the subservient Asian wife.

Another phrase I've never used. That's a made up white man's phrase.

Of course it is rooted in white supremacy, that is the whole point. But, you know exactly what it is intended to mean, right?

Yes. I wouldn't give it power by even typing the phrase.

I think, not acknowledging stereotypes, denying their existence, deeming them merely entertainment, gives them more power on the subliminal level, than dealing with them consciously. JMO

I've stated being called a N, a Black B, and bring nearly ran over. Why use my mind thinking about sterotypes when I got white folk picking fights.
What am I calling entertainment?
Tyler Perry makes movies. To watch or not to watch is the question.
Are you not tired of talking bout old sterotypes?
I don't even think about them anymore.
