Welcome to the brave new world of cleaning up after yourself and no longer burdening black women with the unpaid labor and invisible upkeep of taking care of your personal hygiene and sanitation. Get used to cleaning up after your own damn self because we’re all nursemaids now.
Neither race, gender, class, nor your professional status will protect you from having to pitch in and handle your share of the dirty work. Wipe down that counter and polish away those smears. Not only will your work be invisible, but you’ll have to try and look good while performing it since, now, your life probably depends on it. It’s only what black women have been doing for free for the last four centuries. So hop to it! There’s plenty of unseen, undervalued work for everybody to do.

Truly I enjoyed this! My mom had five boys, no girls, so there was no question that we were going to learn how to clean up after ourselves. And as we grew up, we saw firsthand the stress of her working outside the home and supervising us too. Some things are about to get real for folks. Thank you, and I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy.
