Black Fatigue: The Hidden Cost of Institutional Racism — Systems Under Stress

Using Black Fatigue by Mary-Frances Winters as an entry point, this episode examines how institutional systems can transfer long-term psychological, biological, and economic costs onto individuals while preserving organizational stability.

Rather than treating racism as a collection of isolated acts of prejudice, the analysis explores incentive structures, institutional persistence, health consequences, and the feedback loops that allow unequal outcomes to reproduce themselves across generations.

Topics include:

• weathering and allostatic load
• corporate diversity incentives
• institutional persistence
• emotional taxation
• intergenerational stress
• the upward mobility paradox
