Why women's anger is so misunderstood, according to author Soraya Chemaly

The punishments women receive for not appearing sufficiently deferential are steep. You can be the greatest athlete in the world, but if you're female and a woman of color, you will be penalized for behavior that your male counterparts get away with.

Yet activist and “Rage Becomes Her” author Soraya Chemaly has a reassuring message around anger. “There is joy and creativity and immense political power in understanding how to use it."
