Black women in history and society have faced many hardships whether it be violence or even abuse, but what many don’t realize is that many, if not all women go threw this. The album Lemonade by Beyoncé shows how many women this problem actually applys to, not just black.

The domination of males in modern society and women's ability to stand up against the injustice is narrated by Beyoncé in her studio album "Lemonade".

# data[].attributes.body
Beyoncés "Lemonade" gives the wrong idea about how to deal with the dehumanization of black women, violence should not be how to react and how to fix this problem.

Beyoncé's album Lemonade focuses on the praising of black women in today's society, however the use of violence to do this is negatively impacting their cause and they must find another way to make society hear their voice.

1.) Silence gives those who hurt others, in this case women, power.

2.) Beyoncé makes it clear that we must break down society's "standard" views of the female body and promote self-love and the empowerment of women by speaking up rather than continuously remaining silent.

Many women present in black culture are often dominated by meb resulting in rash outcomes which only pushes them further from inequality, as violence does not bring about positive change, and the only way to make a difference is through the support of all genders and races present

Black culture is rooted in a history of consistent abuse and forced labor, initially by white slave owners and eventually by white oppressors. What Beyoncé brings to light is that the exploitation did not and does continue to happen solely in this way. Black men will deceive and break the hearts of black women, and this has nothing to do with race. She created an empowering fantasy, but it fails to make effective change. The victims will be  be dominated ub

After reading bell hooks' much more societal review on Beyonce's Lemonade, what I truly had gotten from her descriptions of how it related to female African American life, I truly do feel that, putting both color and gender aside, in today's day in age it seems as if many almost desire to be in a victimized state, having the ability to speak of the issue with full force, exactly what it is that Beyoncé appeals to in her music, a desire to "turn the tables", but turning the tables truly is not the key to societal change, but rather looking past the problem, and towards a collaborative solution

Black women feel exploited and oppressed by men, but reality gets in the way of women beliefs.

There is a norm of male domanance in the black comunity, and there shoulden’t be.

Beyoncé sexulizes the black female body within her video to challenge to dehumanization of it.

# data[].attributes.body
Societal dehumanization and oppression of black females is still a huge problem today, but fixing it with “emotional violence” is not the solution.

Healthy self esteem begins with self love and not demeaning ourselves for someone else's is happiness

Today, Mainstream culture has influenced society to act, think, and be a certain way and what is expected

# data[].attributes.body
1. Black culture is still discriminated by society and the only way to continue to fight against this oppression is for the black society to voice their pain and thoughts rather than use violence because it is not effective.

2. Violence is no good in combatting against oppression which is why Beyoncé’s album “Lemonade” is highly looked upon as it preaches the stereotypical framework and lack of respect for the black community.

Lemonade discusses the heartbreaking issues Beyoncé faces and how she respondes to these actions. Violence doesn’t seem to fix problems instead it leads to more. Women need to get “revenge” in a different way.
