Career
Black women face unique and multifaceted challenges in the workplace due to the intersection of racism and sexism. These challenges often manifest as microaggressions, where subtle, often unintentional, discriminatory comments or behaviors undermine their competence or identity. Black women are frequently subjected to biases that question their leadership abilities or professionalism, even when they are overqualified for their roles. Additionally, the pressure to code-switch—modifying speech, appearance, or behavior to fit into predominantly white environments—adds a layer of emotional labor that can lead to burnout. Black women also face significant wage disparities, earning less than both their white female and male counterparts, and they are often overlooked for promotions or leadership roles despite their qualifications. These cumulative obstacles create an environment where Black women are not only underrepresented in leadership positions but also constantly have to navigate spaces that fail to recognize or value their contributions.
