The 'strong one' narrative has cost our communities more than we talk about. Black women who are never allowed to be tired. Black men who are taught that silence is strength. Black teens carrying the weight of a world that moves too fast. For communities of color, the added weight of holding your culture, your identity, and your family's expectations — all at once, all the time — makes the load even heavier. You do not have to carry it alone. There is another way.
