Anger is not allowed to be expressed by most people in our society.

Women are not allowed to be angry.

People of color are not allowed to be angry.

Abuse victims are not allowed to be angry.
The people who generally have the most reason to be angry are expected not to express it because it is seen as another discrediting weakness.

Anger is an essential part of healing.

Anger is an essential part of life.
We don’t need to over-spiritualize it. We don’t need to shame people for their anger. We don’t have to apologize for our own.

Anger is the beginning of grief. Without anger, you cannot reach acceptance.

Be angry. You’re healing.
