black woman race pride fatigue solidarity stories

I do not have words for how tired I am. I am so proud to be a black woman. I am SO SO proud and nothing can take that pride and power away from me.

But behind that pride and power there is a fatigue so great that if I could actually sleep, I don't think I would ever wake up.
