Dr. Henderson talks about Black fatigue, which refers to the cumulative emotional, psychological, and physical toll experienced by Black people due to systemic racism, discrimination, and social injustice. It is a form of chronic stress that stems from repeated exposure to microaggressions, inequality, and the constant need to prove one's worth in predominantly white spaces. Over time, this persistent burden can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, and even physical health issues. Black fatigue is not just an individual experience but a generational one, passed down through shared trauma and lived realities. Addressing it requires not only personal healing but also structural change to dismantle the systems that perpetuate racial inequity.
