Abstract:
In the Black and African American tradition, music is used as a creative tool expressing the community's feelings and positions on social issues and injustices. In this article, we reframe the popular song, "Break My Soul" by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, to highlight Black women's experiences with racial trauma in academic medicine and what these women are doing to support their well-being and address inequities. We use this song as a creative expression to resist the oppressive structures of the academy on behalf of these Black women physicians.
