Event Description:
Why are Black women so angry? That is a question that is often asked, but never fully answered and/or understood. Often associated with this question is “The Angry Black Woman Syndrome (ABWS)”. The ABWS is described as a negative stereotype that often misrepresents Black women. It is true that an ABW can be identified by her attitude, conversation, and body language; but the myths and stereotypes associated with the ABWS often marginalizes Black women from being taken seriously.
This workshop will critically explore the ABWS, and the myths and stereotypes that are associated with it. The focus will be on the following objectives:
* To explore the emotion “anger” as it relates to Black
women.
* To review the ideology of the Angry Black Woman
Syndrome.
* To explore the myths and stereotypes associated
with anger and Black women.
* To develop coping skills and strategies for Black
women when it comes to dealing with their anger.
This workshop includes 3 CEU’s for LCSWs and LMFTs. A light continental brunch will also be provided. Please register for this workshop at http://www.thehiphoptherapist.com/ClassSchedule.html. For more information about this workshop, please call the REALTalk Enterprises at 323-901-6555.
