The Strong Black Woman Complex (Dr. Marita Golden)

What is the Strong Black Woman Complex and how does it censor the voice of pain? In this riveting podcast episode, author, cultural activist, and Hurston/Wright Foundation co-founder, Marita Golden, shares why women of color must begin to redefine strength. Golden's new book, "The Strong Black Woman Complex: How A Myth Endangers the Physical and Mental Health of Black Women," is the basis for this discussion of oft-ignored topics such as colorism, rape culture, why black women fail to grieve, and destigmatizing mental health care.
