Welcome back to Book React Series 12! In Episode 5, we continue reading Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit by Mary-Frances Winters, diving into two powerful chapters:
Chapter Five: “The Many Layers of Black Fatigue” explores how systemic racism impacts every aspect of Black life—from education and healthcare to the workplace and beyond. Winters peels back the layers to show that Black fatigue is not just emotional—it's physical, social, economic, and generational.
Chapter Six: “Say Her Name: Black Women’s Fatigue” centers the experiences of Black women, highlighting the unique and compounded burdens they carry. From invisibility and silencing to overwork and expectation, this chapter is both a call for recognition and a demand for justice.
📖 Join us as we read and reflect on the intersectionality of race and gender, and honor the voices and pain of those who are too often unheard.
