A new study shows that Black women outpace every other group of women in workforce participation. Yet they are still paid less & retire in poverty at twice the rate of white women. This is a system. It is long past time this country started carrying them the way they have carried us.

Please rest yourself sisters, we know that we are capable but our all is not appreciated. Pour that energy back inside and fill yourself with joy.

At the very *least* Social Security should have a multiplier for people who are disadvantaged by racism. Yeah, I suspect it might need a lot of legislation but it might at least help somewhat.

I understand where you're coming from. And it has validity. But white americans gave trump and republicans all forms of government. So social security is all but gone now anyway.

These studies don't talk enough about how this is done to Black Women deliberately because we are Black and Women.

The misogynoir needs to be acknowledged outloud. This isn't just happening

White people have been under-qualified and dumb AF in most jobs for like almost two centuries now. Has anyone told these black women to try THAT?

From Lorraine Hansberry to Toni Morrison (and beyond), whenever they manage to be heard, the stories are human touchstones.
