Confronting Misogynoir in Hip-Hop

Hip-Hop has arguably centered the male gaze since its birth 50 years ago, leading to hypersexualized and stereotypical depictions of Black women, marked by disdain and dehumanization. In critically examining this pattern, Moya Bailey coined the term ‘misogynoir’ in 2008 – a term that encapsulates the unique discrimination Black women face that intertwines misogyny and racism.
