The New Mocha Craze Part 1: “YOU Black Women” by: Deanna Davis

Another Great Piece From Miss Davis

Everytime I hear this statement… my fists bawl up, my eyes get all Uncle Ruckus-y, that little vein in the middle of my forehead starts hulking, and I am overcome with a rage that even Chuck Norris would fear. Wanna know why? Because second to any sentence with the word “nagging” in it, this statement is one of the most feared, and insulting things you can say to a woman.
WHAT IT REALLY MEANS…
What you’re really doing is grouping ALL women into one category, ascribing everyone the same beliefs, and the same treatment. It says we all walk, talk, and comb our hair the same way… 
Outright, it’s denigrating. It completely removes the guy from the situation… and shoulders black women with the weight of whatever random argument is  being had at the moment.
