In this episode of Need to Know, Dr. Nsenga Burton delivers a powerful reflection on Black advocacy through the lens of empowerment, intersectionality, and political betrayal. Drawing on a deep historical foundation, she unpacks the tireless work of Black Americans who have fought not just for their freedom, but for civil rights that uplift all Americans, often without receiving that same solidarity in return. Dr. Burton confronts the double standards Black activists face, especially when their movements prioritize Black lives unapologetically. She examines recent examples of political abandonment, voter suppression, and the alarming disparities in Black maternal health, challenging listeners to recognize the unique burdens placed on the Black community. Through personal narratives and sharp analysis, she affirms that Black advocacy is not only justified—it’s essential and morally grounded. This is a call to reject guilt-tripping narratives and honor the right of Black communities to lead, center, and define their struggles and triumphs.
