When Black women succeed, all women succeed
National Domestic Workers Alliance
Dear Chris,
Black women make essential contributions to the productivity, wealth, and success of our nation. We care for and support our families while serving as leaders in our communities and society at large.
Black women care for others, and yet who cares for us? Black women make up nearly 30% of the direct caregiver workforce in the United States, and yet face significant barriers to getting the support we need to care for our own families – from health care to child care. We vote at higher rates than any other racial or ethnic group, but we remain underrepresented in all branches of government. Our labor powers our economy, but Black women face the highest poverty rates in the nation, second only to indigenous women. Black women are working hard, but hard work doesn’t pay off for Black women.
That’s why we’ve partnered with the Institute for Women’s Policy Research and the Institute for Policy Studies to release a report on the Status of Black Women in the United States (http://click.actionnetwork.org/mpss/c/3gA/ni0YAA/t.27z/JaFOzldBQzy1YSUC3snuhg/h1/hir7O2sEWVGhVL4e6IIzRBO4MT4zlAXPTTNvZ7M4hU2NcCWyIV cYcB-2FCyC-2Fsy6qIGT-2FE0UpkRrpo-2FmHslFQgHEcvsnZhrePIfx0k7XxRfr1-2FD9VS6wkXfzX877LVXk2liswhSTjNbTjhIU0yBjKv98-2FA9Y9UvlBjsQdV3G0t8NQlSEmlP9Q1aaPvoM12wzAlP3bCkeH HLrOMoBD6xeQjp5-2BhGnwI9uQEmSREQOvNhCFM1MA9mBD8HhzdVimpkshf3Fz0xzx r7kSruT268ctoqjZXbPds53784rNMuBeWckqPQmeUkLPJ5kS6q gatbvjsKdJ4FH9rWxJawCkh7NYp2odl-2FNqpdFpSP7isJv-2FNQG8-3D) – to help identify the challenges specifically facing Black women, and to come together to generate solutions that address those problems.
This report is offers important data on the status of Black women in every state across America, and includes statistics on Black domestic workers specifically and the care sector as a whole. It offers recommendations for how to improve Black women’s lives. It highlights why we started We Dream in Black (http://click.actionnetwork.org/mpss/c/3gA/ni0YAA/t.27z/JaFOzldBQzy1YSUC3snuhg/h2/hir7O2sEWVGhVL4e6IIzRBO4MT4zlAXPTTNvZ7M4hU1k8LeKOi FahCAKmrLYgpKtf9af-2FhW8AeUT0ps9AjF8xRDbNTgX0mX8RN47IeWHuFfjCMiUYUE1s FwjbpHjGAQyoa88Gx701FrSFwWc1GgMtE999HRKZpJnpBWwDgp SboA0v3YybTsloKRLNa8pNOFp8ecvDJ1JcxxR8BU0LSGI9Ll-2FHt7YzBEtpyr1hw8LvySn-2FWBKHQWMnnIBvSoFJJWrXeL667iSKeIOiuCD9uuOx-2FiIMh-2BHjE5X-2FnBSDaclnA2zsf5SKG-2FLUliMMcaufKI4P5gC5CG-2Bb810h1BwUVM4xy7U02osJEy9UEc5HCPgbpY-3D) in 2014. For an industry rooted in the legacy of slavery, it’s important that the experiences of Black women in the care industry shape the possibilities for a better future for all of us.

The American Dream should belong to all of us. The challenges facing Black women in the economy and in our democracy are complex, yet the possibilities for building better systems that support the health and wellbeing of Black women are endless.
When Black women succeed, we all succeed.
