Politics of Black Women’s hair

The discrimination against black women in the workplace and the hiring process

Racialized Sexism (WOC)

Violence against Black women committed by police officers (not overlooking black men, just also)

The stereotyping of black girls in suburban areas

There’s also the “Welfare Queen”, the “Token Black”, the “Strong Black Independent”  woman, the portrayal of black women being ignorant and excessively using curse words when compared to white women in the media (search for page 240).. The list goes on. 

I hope I provided some answers as to what you were looking for. 

Edit: I consider these to be respectable politics because people often accept these to be true and live by these generalizations or overlook the injustices happening/excusing them.
