“Rather than promoting adaptation to inequitable systems, the authors advance a model of healing rooted in identity reclamation, collective care, and embodied restoration. This book proves a resource for not only those seeking to heal but also for others seeking to deepen their understanding of culturally responsive care.”
—Ashley McGirt-Adair, founder, The Therapy Fund Foundation, and author of The Cost of Healing in Silence
“This book meets the moment. It reframes fatigue not as a personal failure but as the predictable result of systems that were never designed with us in mind. A must-read for anyone serious about moving from awareness to meaningful, lasting change.”
—Areva Martin, civil rights attorney and media analyst
“This work builds on the authors’ decades of experience navigating the tension between Black identity and the systems that seek to constrain it. It is a timely reminder that we belong to ourselves first and most, and that healing is our birthright.”
—Tara Jaye Frank, author of The Waymakers
“This book is essential, transformative reading for anyone ready to acknowledge the heavy toll of racial exhaustion and work toward genuine healing.”
—Pamela Abner, SVP, Health Equity Officer, Mount Sinai Health System
“Healing Black Fatigue is not a book you read. It is a book that reads you. It asks you to feel your way through it and emerge with usable tools. This book leans into healing as a form of resistance.”
—Victoria Verlezza, founder, Cognitive Equity Leadership
