Title is loaded, right? Yeah, same for us. In this episode, we discuss an article from Madam Noire titled “Black Women Can No Longer Afford to Save Broken Black Men.” It goes deeeeeep. We agree with some of it, but also recognize some of the perspectives are not so black and white. We knew the title may ring as "black man bashing" but, quite opposite we’re sharing our truths. One being, many black women are just tired. There are lots of issues specific to the black man & black woman dynamic we need to talk about! The point is not to denigrate black men (never is, we love you) but instead to express a painful emotional load many black women carry by being so loyal to black men and the 'black family' w/o reciprocity. And then! In the spirit of talking about deep loaded issues, we also took a dip in the cheating pool, even grabbed an open relationship floaty 😜This one is super sensitive, multilayered and probably needs a part 2 and even 3, but for now, join us as we unpack.
