Abstract

The strongBlackwoman (SBW; Morgan, 1999) is a hip hop generation cultural script strategically performed by Black women to project authority, competency, and togetherness. It acts as psychic armor to shield against the deadly daily dagger of White heteropatriarchy in the academy. The author recites two indelible moments when she engages as mentor to narratively stage unmasking. Each moment provides a pedagogical opportunity to reimagine so-called failed performances as reclamations of her humanness. In doing so, the author demonstrates how unmasking engages a Black feminist ethic of empathy and exemplifies a Black feminist praxis to engender relatable, compassionate, and life-affirming mentoring.

揭露在指导中的坚强黑人女性
坚强的黑人女人(SBW;Morgan, 1999)是由黑人女性策略性地表演的嘻哈一代文化剧本,以展示权威,能力和团结。它就像精神盔甲一样,可以抵御学院里白人异性恋父权制的致命匕首。作者列举了两个不可磨灭的时刻,她以导师的身份参与了叙事阶段的揭秘。每个时刻都提供了一个教学机会,将所谓的失败表演重新想象为她人性的复兴。在此过程中,作者展示了揭露如何与黑人女权主义者的同理心伦理相结合,并举例说明了黑人女权主义者的实践,以产生相关的、富有同情心的和肯定生活的指导。
