In this episode of Wake Up Happy, Sis!, LeAnne Dolce and Sheronda Sealey tackle the heavy burden Black women are forced to carry when faced with racism, misogyny, and disrespect. Using the recent controversy sparked by James and Fuhad from the Shxtzngigs podcast, and the racist comments made by Andrew Schulz, we explore how Black women are left to defend themselves—not just from external forces, but from within our own community. Why aren’t Black men standing up for us when we’re being disrespected? How does the narrative of the "strong Black woman" leave us unprotected, forcing us to always fight back alone? This is a powerful conversation about respect, accountability, and healing, as we dive into the layers of harm Black women endure and why it’s time to shift the narrative.
