A Sensation of Black Women
Yesterday I created the collective noun for Black women while quote-replying to an awesome tweet. Check it out:
https://twitter.com/AwakeBlackWoman/status/855644312888946688
I have no idea if we’ve been collective noun’d before and if so, what was the word chosen, but I think mine is pretty awesome!
A Sensation of Black Women
Here’s a a few from This List Of Collective Names For People:
A lying of pardoners, a misbelief of painters, a superfluity of nuns (my fave, of course from that list lol!)
Just when I’d decided to do stream of consciousness and/or news snippets from my life type of posts – designed to keep me from losing this writer’s block battle I’m continuously fighting – along comes my gorgeous brain and here we are!
Since it’s my collective noun, I’ll set the rules. Where two Black women or more are gathered – doing ANYHING – you know, breathing etc. We are heretofore and henceforth deemed:
A Sensation.
My first thought since the original tweet was urging the media to hire Black women, I was thinking along the lines of 7-10 in one go. Imagine hundreds, thousands….. millions.
ehhh been there, done that ;p
