Marriage was often seen as a partnership built on shared struggle and mutual support, particularly in the face of racism, economic instability, and limited social mobility. The Black man, in this context, was expected to be a provider and protector—roles that were deeply respected but also complicated by mass incarceration, job discrimination, and
