Never judge someone else’s feelings by their facial expressions. What you see as an angry outburst might actually be caused by shame, humiliation or even grief. Remain curious, and ask the other person to describe what they’re feeling. Remember, you’re not a mind-reader, and you’re not a feelings-reader either.

I too find this very true. My directness also gets me labeled “The Angry black woman”. The angry black woman stereotype is a racial trope in American society that portrays black women as tart-tongued and emasculating, one hand on a hip and the other pointing a finger while displaying an ill-mannered and ill-tempered nature.
