- Writer Brittney Cooper examines how anger has fueled her development as a feminist in her new book, "Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower." Cooper is professor of women's and gender studies and Africana studies at Rutgers University, a columnist at Cosmopolitan magazine and co-founder of the Crunk Feminist Collective.
As a black man I can happily say, we do not claim this thing.
Have you noticed all the hyper-active feminists are 300+ pounds?
Only her mouth is hyperactive. The rest of her body and her brain, not so much.
What the hell is this comment section? It’s a crying shame to see so many Black men (and women) hate on a sister for loving herself. 🤦🏽♀️
She is a typical fat feminist loud mouth full of low self-esteem, fake self love and indoctrination. She is most definitely not the first choice of any strong minded productive man and needs feminism to perpetuate lies of empowerment to make up for the fact that she is at the bottom with the rest of the failed idiot black feminist community.
EXACTLY Black people are lost
@@harmony3279 we have never killed entire races or stolen entire countries and continents.
@LoveNot Hate Feminist do not care about you. The use their time to remind people that they are feminist.
@@alsimmons5041 You are DISGUSTING
Kevin Samuels would shut this whole thing down. Lol! 😂
IDTS!
Too bad his body shut down before he could lol!
Yes he would because all she talks about is recruiting feminism in the church and take feminism along with Jesus. Feminism is rooted in racism/ white supremacy, and lesbianism with an aim to keep black men inferior to black women so that black women can reap the benefits of white supremacy..
I don't think a corpse can "shut down" anything, but whatever.
Black feminism= I can't get any man worth while. All jokes aside, she'd make a very good offensive linemen.
Spaniel for Jabba the Hutt
You’re disgusting individual. You should be supporting your sisters. You prove Malcolm x point that the most disrespected person in America is the black women.
@@fnannnnn wheres the black woman in this video? I see the football player though
You dont look like much yourself in your profile pic.
@@fnannnnn he meant that for women who are respectful
From a martial arts perspective, every thing this lady says is dead wrong. You inflict the most damage when you are calm, collected, and confident because you know you have the skill set. She fights with rage because that’s all she’s got. Picture her fighting in a ring blindfolded running around kicking and screaming and throwing her arms all over the place. Get back in the nose bleeds young lady.
That's why China is taking over everything while we yell and scream about everything. They've been around a lot longer than our country and it's obvious now they'll be around a lot longer. They understand the "long game".
@@diypictures yep… and this woman think she’s so intelligent, yet she has no idea that she’s a pawn being used to weaken America.
@@2012asand If that's the case the infiltration would be a lot deeper than I thought. I figure it's just them trying to "give them what they want" not fully realizing it goes against our overall best interests.
She swallowed everybody who disagreed with her!
Why are all black feminist look like Lizzo
Or is that Lizzo
This woman is foolish.
Looks like "The Making of a Black Feminist" requires about 10,000 calories/day.
Black feminist have been talking this nonsense for a long time. They take pride in struggling by themselves. Sad & alone. How has that worked out? Even white feminist will go home & submit to their husbands.
LMAO 🤣 😂
That's because white women understand the importance of having that white man around.
@@RodRod82 White women are annoying in that sense but they know they get too much benefits from white patriarchy then they want to admit
I’m sorry I could never be a feminist nor do I understand their hatred towards men. I am naturally feminine & LOVE men!!!💅💄💋
That's cause men don't want them
Feminism isn’t the same thing as misandry omfg
@@lavenderhuman finally a normal comment
They hate men because they can’t get one
Her words sound like incoherent babble. Of which it has no relevence to anything that solves a problem.
This lady is the stereotype Kevin Samuels warned us about wtf!!! Modern day prophet!! Rip KS
These comments are ugly. Britney Cooper is an accomplished eloquent woman speaking truth. And I think that is scary for y'all. As a white feminist I want to listen to her so I can do better. Another point, I don't speak for her, but for me feminism and dismantling the patriarchy is for the good of all people it's a toxic system that is part of perpetuating men not being allowed to freely express themselves naturally as well and it contributes to racism because of the hierarchical structure.
Came here to say exactly this.
"These comments are ugly" when you don't agree with them and "free expression" when you do. Your victim status is getting a little stale. Talk "patriarchy" to a divorced dad paying alimony AND child support to his free-loading ex-wife.
@@number4cat1 bahaha you sound like a divorced dad meme. Pay your alimony and child support. It’s your family. Take care of them.
@@brandeecharisse7163 Nope. Sorry, shrew. But I sure sympathize with them, and coincidentally, any woman physically or mentally abused by a man. Just wondering - do you want your date to open doors for you AND pay the bill? Or is your complaint that no one wants to take you out in the first place?
@@number4cat1 ew, you sound broke man. Go get a job, join the military, get lost at sea. Just do something besides call women names on the internet.
fter graduating from Howard University, Cooper attended Emory University, where she received her Master of Arts from the Graduate Institute of Liberal Arts in December 2007. She received her PhD in American Studies, in addition to a Women's Studies Certificate, from Emory's Graduate Institute of Liberal Arts in May 2009. What is amazing is, she didn't seem too learn anything.
Just wanted to stop by before the comment section gets turned off! lol
If I looked like her ide be mad too 🤢
Black feminism or what we like to call the Single Mama Factory. Where broken dreams are built ghetto tough!
Hahahahahaha!!! How in the heck did I miss this comment???
Just because she is angry about something, doesn't mean the anger is legitimate
Just because you dont feel her anger doesn't mean that it is not legitimate
@@harmony3279 Umm...
Her physical appearance explains the making of a black feminist.
Exactly what I thought a black feminist would look like.
The Making of a Black Feminist. By the looks of things I’m guessing the recipe is butter, flour, chocolate, jellybeans and a peanut as a brain.
You forget about watermelon and Popeye's three piece.
We eat 3 racist a day, I’m coming I’m hungry
Try to “ reshape “ the world when can’t even do a pull-up or run a quarter mile ..... riiight.
RUN a quarter-mile? That butter-tub couldn't WALK that far.
No your superpower is that spoon an fork
This is the same woman who said about white people: “We’ve gotta take these mofos out.” Let that sink in.
Yeah that was terrible. She's racist AF.
Yeah, she can try to take us out, but she won't be around long if she does try it. She's a nasty animal.
The Chosen and their Black pets😒
Beyoncé is a wife with kids. She knows how to leave her "feminism" on the front porch when she comes in the house.
Oh shut up!
@@1Gloriaa Gloria, we are giving you ladies some wisdom. You better listen, baby!!!!
When did beyonce ever claim to be a feminists?
@@blkdivinity5132 When she's on stage or in the recording booth, she's a feminist (whether she proclaims it or not).
@@1Gloriaa I can disagree with a woman but never tell her to shut up. I simply requests that she extends the same courtesy to me. Obviously, you lack civility.
I can imagine that there's a lot of pent up anger inside once you are trapped in a body like that.
Hahahahahahaha!!! That chick is about to turn green!
Thanks for proving her point.
Yes and she’s eats boxes of Twinkie’s to ease that rage
@@ribbon9110 right ? Actually Brainless
Is that lizzo
'Fight racism'...with racism?
I have yet to see a physically attractive feminist.
The best looking feminist I've seen on a looks rating scale is a 6. I've never seen feminist women who are 8s, 9s, or 10s.
and regular 6 at that not an adjustable one
@@bmblafamilia7761 I think it's because nice looking women who are feminine have no need to subscribe to that ideology.
For the most part feminist women are really just mad that guys ain't messing with them like that. So they resort to becoming man haters trying to get other women to join their miserable club.
While you look like that
now what was the actual point of this comment
This lady is a professor?
😅😅😅😅🤣
I know bro what the hell is going on this is destroying America
Just imagine the radical nonsense she is teaching our youth 😳😳
Encouraging anger at world an unmitigated rage Against the World is not a smart thing to do or encourage. There's a reason the angry black woman Trope exist in in the first couple minutes she pretty much confirmed that it's a real thing. Not a good look. Neither is perpetuating the constantly of victim stereotype, no one likes a martyr.
Additionally I have experience what she's talking about. The meltdowns and things. And I come from a place of emotional instability. It's because the amount of pressure and stress she's put herself under by making herself a martyr and if victim instead of actually trying to solve the problems. It's a lot more stressful trying to manipulate people into doing for you than it is to actually just do it for yourself. If you have to rely on others to get things done you're literally at their Mercy what's put you in a really codependent position. And codependency is not psychologically healthy
Anyone take this beast seriously? No?
Wasn't Jabba green ? Did he change his color in the special edition too ?
The first thing that anyone should ask, is why would any so-called intelligent person spend time and money getting a doctorate in gender studies and Africana studies? The next thing would be to ask yourself why would I listen or care what she has to say? Non-scientific degrees don't do anything but breed an agenda. But maybe that's what is important these days as the world is swirling down the toilet. It's interesting that "these people" have the desire and energy to work hard to get that worthless degree, but when it comes to motivating other people to work hard to get ahead, they would rather teach them that the only way is to complain about racism and bigotry. Ironic that the only ones getting ahead are the ones not listening to the perpetual victim theory.
There are plenty of reasons why someone would get a degree in these studies... assuming you’re not a black person i can see why you find no purpose. Part of the reason is in standard school in America, they teach you nothing about African history, and African American history. I don’t like not agree with anything this woman says, but as you watch her being interviewed and being a recognized professor who got a degree in this... your comment makes you look silly.... did you think about this? Jobs you can get with that degree: Multicultural consultant, Historian, Journalist/ writer, Foriegn service specialist, Media Relations, Government/ politics, Advocacy, Professor.... Clesrly worked for her.
@@Meeeeeeeeeeree Thank you!!!
For the grifting potential, of course. Gullible white people are everywhere.
I’m yet to see a good looking feminist and I don’t think this lady can cross her legs it’s physically not possible now I’m just making a observation and she needs to check her health before she checks others!
that's the response you have? the physical appearance of an educated woman is what really matters? seriously... and saying you have "yet to see a good looking feminist" is sexist AF, you are implying that women should only have a platform to speak if they are beautiful? you are trash and so is everyone else in these comments (especially the men who's ego hurt watching this & felt the need to comment about it). just say you are racist and that you have a weight stigma.
It all makes sense then she has some deeply rooted daddy issues.
And it only makes sense that you have mummy issues Rodney.
@@1Gloriaa Lmao you wish. 🤣😂
I had no idea that feminism was segregated by color as Brittney Cooper invokes. Though Cooper is by all appearances an educated woman, her stance is based on racism something she's against [or at least she says]. She also plays victim which is so convenient in this day and age.
That's not victimization. It's the result of spending your life being treated WRONG. We show up correctly, they look at our color and it doesn't mean shit. NOT victims, not by a long shot. Thank you.
Read a book
@@Newdispweb Found another professional victim.
@@joeyservo What does "professional victim" even mean?
Her comments resonant so heavily for me at my current place in life.
Your a pure sellout suffering from self hate and white worship..
Are you still trying to kick the English out of Scotland?
Being responsible for your own redemption. The power is within!
Why do y'all hate your natural hair tho??🤔
Why do you favor mimicking white women 🤷♂️??
Black feminism and the idea that white ppl are "supreme"🙄 go hand in hand...
Its all distraction..
There is LITERALLY no other race with this many sellouts filled with self hate.
No
Definite glass is half empty victim. I won't be an AHole & clown her size or that's she's not attractive to me, that's as pitiful as her prejudice. I see an educated woman with a great career & it's safe to say a great income, free to say, think & vote as she pleases. Unfortunately you can't tell a person of color WITH that victim mindset that folks should be separated by good & bad (not Black & White) because they'll tell you that White people have the luxury of 'not' seeing color, that's their move. I have the luxury of seeing arrogance & foolishness & opportunity & decency & yes victims. Life is 10% what happens to you & 90% how you handle it & yes some folks get served up better circumstances for many reasons. Life ain't fair but in our country everyone has a chance to have a good one & of course that wasn't always the case for everybody.
I lost count of how many times you contradicted yourself. The verbosity!
@@1Gloriaa I understand that in writing sometimes things can be taken out of context but I do try to express my thoughts as concisely, to the best of my ability. Respectfully there was no contradictions in my meaning but if I did not articulate that well enough, you are welcome to point out where I fell short. For example my comment about her size was not a back handed insult, it was a reference to other people who did not have enough decency to keep their comments about the topic & chose to attack her looks
Smart....skrong.....independent.....unhealthy.....get your passports brothas
Yes! Thank you, Dr. Cooper!
This lady is a doctor????!!!!
Please tell me you’re joking.
Perhaps the genetic code of feminism and its origins can be found in the Genesis source code of our cultural operating system.
Spiritually speaking (gender aside), feminine and masculine wisdom can begin with a fundamental understanding of the cyclical nature of reality (God).
Represented by the snake in many creation myths, the living cycle has a trinity of a beginning (head), a middle and end (tail). As above so below, the sexes were created in the image of God's cyclical nature where Mother is the head and opening to all beginnings and Father holds the tail to all endings (through which the sowing of seeds allow for the next great matriarchal rebirth).The joining of the two (symbolized by the Ouroborus or the marriage ring) is the sacred union needed in assuring the creation and continuation of new life cycles. To speak of the present day God as "Our Father" is simply an admission to our collective positioning within the bigger cycle.
As all mothers have direct experience with the creator quality of birthing, so is the direct experience of rebirthing the divinity within (baptism) belong to that which is spiritually matriarchal. (John 3, verse 3-8).
Sekhmet statues (ancient Egyptian) carry most of their weight in symbolic memory of what was a mother culture dedicated to the direct experience of baptism. As the leg shaped hairlocks extend from maternal breasts to the womb of rebirth, the lioness's head proportions are such that they highlight the bust of a second animal figure. The Lioness's ears as eyes and eyes as nose (nostrils) brings to life the figure of a reptile. 'Neath the halo headress of the solar egg, the lioness's egg fertilization process being internal (Set) and the reptile's egg fertilization process being external (Setting), such being key components to the safety of entering the trans-egoic or "born again" state. The life threatening fear associated with the predatory nature of a lion and/or crocodile encounter are reflective of the intense ego death experiences associated with the transpersonal awakening process.
In spiritually matriarchal times, illumination could be seen as wearing the false beard (ancient Egyptian funerary "ego" death mask) as the high state of cyclical self knowing; high awareness of both our upper matriarchal half and our lower (later) patriarchal half (compared with a mini lower body replica, an "as above so below" tail end beard extension); in full recognition of her civilizational Underworld; her inevitable cyclical destiny. The male pharaoh wears his beard tapered in reverse, indicating a pointing upwards towards the patriarchal head, divine representative of God's tail end cycle.
Mary's anointing and wiping of Jesus's feet with her hair can then be seen as "Head to tail" (toe) imagery as she descends her matriarchal head to his patriarchal feet, thus reenacting the high understanding of the divine cyclical process. (John 12, verse 3)
To carry the Ankh was perhaps to symbolically carry that upper and lower understanding. As the upper matriarchal womb symbolised the fertile birthing of civilization, below, the now Christian cross is carried to place emphasis on the lower (later) "End Times" Father principle of the great cycle.
Lord Ganesha, the elephant headed Hindu diety, displays a cyclical head to trunk symbolism and points to the Mother head of his matriarchal elephant society. In plain sight, Ganesha (like the elephant) wears God's cyclical nature on his face.
A whole temple was dedicated to the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor, who is the matriarchal "Uterus" personified. th-cam.com/video/J0m0zJSEFK0/w-d-xo.html
"See all women as mothers, serve them as your mother. when you see the entire world as the mother, the ego falls away. See everything as Mother and you will know God." - Neem Karoli Baba
Love you and the book, Brittney 💕
Those who go against the Bible prepare for the lake a fire even though they might cry and weep did go against the Bible and he's still going to burn even the ones that don't even believe the word
Loved and needed this!!!! Thank you much Dr. cooper ❤️
Feminism is the gateway to the Lake of Fire you can't disagree against the Bible and think you're going to be saved Genesis 3 + 16
Yup❗️
Thank you!!!
I threw up.
Dr. Mister Black your mother doesn’t love you
I threw up to.
Jazz R that's an illogical ad hominem
This lady is off.
That is why there's going to be weeping and moaning and gnashing of teeth because a lot of people think they're following the Bible and they going to find out they're not doing it they saying the opposite Genesis 3 and 16
I think this feminist stuff is ridiculous. But your religion believes it's ok for fathers to sell their daughters to her rapist. The Bible is a poor example for humanity to follow.
When she said "I'm not interested in unity" chile🥳... I felt that! It's the solidarity for me too💯👌🏾Keep working and traveling and investing and praying and laughing and studying and being and doing and loving ❤💖💕
Yaaaasss Dr. Cooper!!!!!!!

Wine and cats,

feed her to Candace...lmao
She could feed an entire neighborhood. Oh wait. You meant metaphorically.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This stinks !
I love black feminism it is what I was breed for being a powerful black woman I need to get with my equals! I have a voice that is powerful and I need to get in there with y’all and fight the good fight
While you sit up here with a snapchat filtered thumbnail with dumb ass animal parts digitally imposed on your face. You cant be serious.
You are haters talking about something you have no idea about are you black and or a woman? No! Oh okay! I am not interested in Becky or Ken my blackness runs deep the only person I aim to get understanding from is my own sisters the ones that haven’t awaken from the chains of Patriarchy and slavery the ones yet to be free thinkers! When we are all united we will make major moves! I’m a #BlackHoodFeminist not white washed like most of my feminist sisters yet patriarchy has played a big part in keeping me unemployed in my field due to sexism and racism! The things I see the way I’m treated talked to looked down on because I’m a black woman! Black feminism is necessary
@@aljmkw1 Definitely necessary
Are you a lesbian? Feminists equals to lesbianism
Gay women run black feminist movement. Shit is a joke.
Wow. The disrespect from the black men in these comments is disgusting. Y’all are so dusty, smh. Idc what she’s saying, how can you disrespect a black woman?? Especially publicly. Wow. Disgusting.
There's a bunch of white guys making these comments .
" I don't care what she's saying" that's the comment we all needed to show how much you really don't care what black women say or do because in your feeble mind they can do no wrong can they .
I hear self deletion is fun. You should try it.
She called for the genocide of white people. She blamed racism for being overweight. She's a disgusting POS.
Very honest, very helpful. Pure and intelligent.
🤦♀️
Love her. Please have her on again!
😂 no
Oh yea, she’s tons of fun 👍
the comments here are so racist and disgusting - get a grip
Someone disagrees with a black woman, so they must be a racist. You left out "sexist" and "body shamer". May I supply you with a few more pejoratives? That way you won't have to spend the mental effort to make an intelligent comment.
Yes! Black women are so passionate; we must be!
