Ignorance is bliss!

"And I wish more black women like this would disappear. We need to see the softer side of black women, I'm tired of the Angry Black Woman syndrome!! Always thinking you gotta be so damn hard."
I saw this post, (the one above) on youtube and it really got to me, mentally. First off, why be ignorant enough to have the courage to post something like that on a social site?! One thing for sure is that you can't say all black women are "angry", that's just pure ignorance, we all know that would be a lie. But if you actually felt that all black women were "angry" then how so? What made you come to that conclusion? When it all comes down to it, anger isn't decided upon race or gender. The word anger is a noun and is defined as a strong feeling of displeasure and belligerence aroused by awrong...so how can you narrow the word "angry" down to a specific race and gender? Ignorance is bliss!
