"The most disrespected person in America is the black woman. The most unprotected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America is the black woman" — Malcolm X

Do you agree or disagree with this quote?

I am not trying to stir the pot!!! I am interested in everyone's views on the matter. I was reading an article earlier on how most black people in the Unites States feel right now.
Black women in particular feel threatened and unappreciated by everyone- including their own race.
Think about all the negative stereotypes given to black women. What other race of women has as many negative stereotypes as black women? I am not saying other ethnicities don't have their share of stereotypes; however, black women tend to have the most, and worse, out of them.

Let us try to keep this post civil please. I know I am probably going to regret making this anonymous, but I want everyone to feel comfortable honestly replying.

So I joined a company my brother worked at previously. The boss sort of has a negative stereotype, he keeps making comments based not on anything I did/do but based solely off of my brother's hot-headed / act first, think later antics. It's annoying as between the two of us I am more laid-back/level headed & skilled.

The boss / senior staff went around and told a few others - which has grown into more - I'm "so & so's brother". Now my brother was once "green employee" who people "poked fun at". So I've got that potential stereotype as well.

And I keep getting well bothered/harassed by people in the hallways I don't know from eve/adam saying "I heard you're so & so's brother", who I don't know if they're among the "poked fun at" group, or ask personal questions about my brother (e. g. where is he now) that if I'd lost contact with my brother would just be embarrassing/make me look like a fool if I couldn't answer.

I've only been here a few weeks but between the boss's ideology, the stereotyping, and the nosy parker staff I see why when my brother left he said adios & didn't look back or visit.

Ladies I for one love a good whodunnit mystery dinner party.
Two people I know host their own dinner theater and they have written multiple stories for their guests be it for teenagers or adults.

One common thing I've found in all of them about the victims - its mostly always men/boys and most of them are found dead stabbed in the back with a knife.

LOL as I've been to several mystery dinner parties.. I'm curious is this a trope or something? dead dude with a knife to the back in the murder mysteries?

FYI I personally am more ok with dead dudes then a dead female character lol call it bias, but I'm just curious to know if its a trope.
