Hoochie Mama Drama

The author attempts to delve deeply into the pain and cultural dynamics that have given birth to yet another inexplicable entity that permeates a rather large segment or demographic of people of color. We only know that like barnacles attaching themselves to the hulls of ocean going ships they have become part of the urban landscape. They are referred to as the “Hoochie Momma”. The arrival of said Hoochie Momma was a natural one due to the disproportionate amount of their black male potential husbands and or boyfriends carrying the dubious honor of representing 50% of the prison population. Some of these men often being the victims of false imprisonments in the United States. Sadly we only comprise 13% of the documented census. These black women indeed stepped up to fill the vacuum left by their men by any means necessary, and I don’t condemn nor do I condone their methods. Conversely it would indeed be a breath of fresh air to see the Hoochie Momma genre curtailed before it becomes a modern day Tsunami (an uncontrollable wave) that continues to spin out of control! I would caution any reader to bear in mind that there is no chronological order in which the character’s stories are told because there is no empirical “scientific instrument” yet invented to measure or calculate the amount of pain, hurt or degradation that black women, as well as Hispanic, are subjected to just trying to survive against horrific odds in twenty-first century urban and suburban America!
