“Angry Black Woman” Is a Disciplinary Strategy
The angry Black woman stereotype functions in corporate environments as a mechanism for discrediting, silencing, and disciplining Black women who raise concerns or push back. This session names it as a structural dynamic and examines how it gets deployed (in performance reviews, in meetings, in the HR complaint process) and what workers can do about it.
