This is such a powerful segment. I know how I feel after 6+ months of the Trump presidency. The daily missteps, the worry that he'll start a nuclear war, the worry that the GOP is going to obliterate my ability to affordably obtain healthcare, my continued access to birth control and abortion access if needed, etc.
And I'm a privileged middle class white woman.
I cannot imagine the level of exhaustion in black communities. This is nothing new for them. This is decades, centuries that this has happened. The concept of having a "safe" place--basically the need to take care of yourself sometimes, among all the badness, is just really poignant.
