the one who had hung up. I hate angry customers. I hate them especially when it’s not even my fault. I spend my time making their food beautiful as can be, putting far more detail than proved necessary, yet the drivers end up making the food late. I suppose it my fault for telling him an hour. Shame on me. He overreacted and I’m sticking to that. What can I do? If I had taken the order, there’d been no one in the store. Instead, I was left answering yet another angry customer whose food was also late

I am deeply interested in why Black women are received and portrayed as both “angry” and “strong” Black Women. It may seem inexplicable that a respected black woman educator would stamp her foot, jab her finger in someone’s face and scream while trying to make a point on national television, thereby reconfirming the notation that black women are irrationally angry. When confronted about race and gender, as a black woman I stand in a crooked room. I have to figure out which way is up. Bombarded
