About this listen

Stereotypical images of women of color, particularly Black women, often rely on controlling tropes that portray them as aggressive, hypersexualized, or servile to justify systemic inequality. Common stereotypes include the "Angry Black Woman" (loud, combative), the "Jezebel" (promiscuous), the "Mammy" (desexualized servant), and the "Strong Black Woman" (expected to endure hardship).
