This episode peels back a painful truth: the parallels between power, race, gender, and the institutions that claim to protect us. I break down why the statements “Men are to women as white people are to Black people” and “Police officers are to Black men as doctors and nurses are to Black women” hit so hard — not because they’re dramatic, but because the patterns are real. Using CDC, DOJ, NIH, and Mapping Police Violence data, I dive into the history, the statistics, and the lived experiences behind Black maternal mortality, medical neglect, police violence, and the way these systems consistently fail Black families. If you’ve ever felt unseen in a doctor’s office or unsafe around police, this episode is for you. If you’ve ever questioned the parallels between institutions, this episode explains them. And if you love layered conversations about race, gender, power, and survival — welcome. ➡️ Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & more ➡️ Like, comment, and subscribe ➡️ Share this with someone who needs to hear it Chapters: 0:00 – Opening Thought 1:12 – Intro 2:07– The First Peel 6:43 – The Messy Middle 21:17 – No Tears, Just Truths 24:37 – Outro #EverythingIsOnions #BlackWomen #BlackMen #MedicalRacism #PoliceBrutality #MaternalMortality #BlackCommunity #Podcast
