<p><em>I write for those women who do not speak, for those who do not have a voice because they were so terrified because we are taught to respect fear more than ourselves. Weve been taught that silence would save us, but it wont.</em> - Audre Lorde</p><p><br></p><p><em>The most disrespected person in America is the Black woman. The most unprotected person in America is the Black woman. The most neglected person in America is the Black woman. </em>- Malcolm X</p><p><br></p><p>In a year marked by the disproportionate coronavirus deaths of Blacks and the Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd murders, Theresa M. Robinson offers a candid look at living while Black in the United States. Specifically, by giving voice to her lived experiences as a Black woman, she affirms Black women as owners of their unique narratives of oppression, marginalization, and disenfranchisement.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Ive written an account that I want to read as a Black woman- one that unapologetically centers Black women and our lived experiences without the tone-policing, the invalidation, and the white-washing.</strong></p><p><strong></strong><br></p><p><em>Blaxhaustion™, Karens, and Other Threats to Black Lives and Well-Being </em>is guaranteed to have Black women proclaiming, Guuuurrrrrrllll, yaaaaasssss! over and over again as it moves from the complexities of microaggression fatigue and weaponized whiteness to the hazards of coronaviracism™ and performative white wokeness. Never has it been more critical than now for Black women to take center stage and raise their voices-and for everyone to listen.<br></p>
