‘…Cooper delivers a frank, conversational-style examination of the importance of black female friendships, respectability politics, and harmful stereotypes, among additional topics. She mixes candor and humor as she origins out dangerous behaviors and values we use in the us to tear ourselves and one another down, while also offering paths forwards. Listeners learn how rage, directed with fine-tuned focus and purpose, can help build up black women’s lives and society overall.’ – AudioFile Newspaper

With about Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower searing honesty, intimacy and humor too, America’s leading young black feminist celebrates the energy of rage in this piercing new audiobook.

So what whether it’s true that Black females are mad simply because hell? They possess the right to be. In the Dark feminist custom of Audre Lorde, Brittney Cooper reminds us that anger can be a powerful source of energy that can give us the power to keep on fighting.

Far too often, Black women’s anger continues to be caricatured into an unsightly and destructive power that threatens the civility and social fabric of American democracy. But Cooper shows us that there surely is more to the story than that. Dark women’s eloquent rage is what makes Serena Williams such a robust tennis participant. It’s what makes Beyoncé’s young lady power anthems resonate so hard. It’s why is Michelle Obama an icon.

Eloquent rage keeps people honest and responsible. It reminds ladies that they don’t have to accept much less. When Cooper discovered of her grandmother’s eloquent rage about like, sex, and marriage within an epic and hilarious front-porch confrontation, her lifestyle was changed. And it required another intervention, this time staged by one of her homegirls, to carefully turn Brittney into the fierce feminist she is today. In Brittney Cooper’s globe, neither mean girls nor fuckboys ever win. But homegirls emerge as heroes. This audiobook argues that ultimately feminism, camaraderie, and faith in one’s personal superpowers are all we really need to turn things correct side up once again.
