The Aggressive Women Problem

It's easy to call a strong, powerful woman "aggressive" when in fact she is assertive, confident and not intimidated by those who try to make her feel less than what she is.
It's easy to label black women "angry black women" just because they are inquisitive, articulate, intelligent and beyond capable.
It's NOT easy to put women in a box, working to keep them from stating their truth for fear that the truth is, in fact, THE truth.
It's NOT easy to break down the inner strength of a woman because her wisdom and fearlessness challenge the status quo.
You see easy tactics will never work. Women are purposed for greatness and it will be impossible to hold down, break down, and prohibit that level of influence, power and all together awesomeness. It transcends the fear, insecurities, intimidation, labeling, and the power-over behavior of others.
We are powerful beyond measure and a wonderful and dynamic creation of the highest power. We won't be stopped and we can't be stopped.
To the women of the world keep pushing on. You are more than enough!
All the best,
