The Shaping of an "Angry" Black Woman is the debut book of poetry
by author Tamara Woods. Written over 15 years, each poem challenges
conventional society and is poised with acerbic, witty, and
abrasive language that is reflective in the often discussed isotope
of society, that being the "Angry" Black Woman. In the words of
Tamara herself: "I wore anger like it was my favorite pair of
Chucks, giving people what they wanted. A minstrel show played with
black emotions rather than a shoe-polished face. This brings around
an unspoken rule: The expectation of anger renders my anger invalid
as it is my starting point, so it's not that important. This
collection of poems takes a look at life, written over a fifteen
year span of mine. It is flawed oddities, beauty foiled with
ugliness. We are all more than just angry. Women are more
complicated than just that."
