In a recent interview, Brian White said that “the most prevalent image in ‘urban society’ right now is women like Nene” Leakes and suggested that this portrayal was not a stereotype but the majority of black women. Aside from feeling irritated by his belief that the loud and petulant black woman trope is true more often than not, I’m sure many of us imagined Nene’s ears perking up as soon as her name was mentioned in a derogatory way. The reality star took to Twitter with a response for Mr. White.
