Awkward Black Girl Analysis

Issa Rae has always been an awkward girl; she’s always worn the wrong pants, kissed the wrong boy, and felt the wrong way, or simply been the wrong girl. The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl is a dazzling collection of essay about growing up learning to love the things in your life that makes it unique, even when those things also make it mighty awkward. She writes about being a black girl who just cannot dance, about being unhappy working in cubicle as her web series was taking off, about not arriving at a personal fashion sense, about honest, insightful, and laugh-out-loud funny and of course arrestingly awkward. One of the best books I ever read was “The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl” written by Issa Rae; it is the best because it tackles subjects like the misadventures of the internet, her being black and growing up watching television.
The anonymity of the Internet, especially in the early days, when it was difficult to take digital photo and figure out who were friends with whom, allowed Issa to project a personality different from her own. Today in our society it is still difficult to know who is really on the other side of the computer screen. There are people pretending to be who they are not. With the Internet asset we have in our lives, we can be and say anything we want.
The Internet can bring out the worst and the best in anyone, we can hide behind the computer screens and nobody really has to know who is on the other side. On the other hand being black in todays society does not mean we have to fulfill the stereotype. Being black can stand for something other then the norm. We are humans too and not that different at all. While television is not helping the current problem we have at the moment. Television can be misleading for our generation at this point
