Go girl

A phrase I've warmed up to in recent years is "You go, girl."

I remember it coming onto the scene.  I feel like it's most like Oprah who popularized it.

And I tried pretty hard to keep it out of my personal middle classed white girl vernacular.

But my boss lady says it on the reg, and in marathon training I've heard it time and again from a range of sisterfriends, as it were, so try as I might, I've caved under the pressure of appreciation.

I feel oddly and unquestionably empowered doling out or receiving the encouragement  and what harm is there in that?
