Citation Type: Miscellaneous

Publication Year: 2014

Abstract: Black Women in the United States, 2014, is a groundbreaking report developed by the Black Women’s Roundtable to assess the overall conditions of Black women in the U.S. In these pages are the triumphs and tragedies surrounding Black Women’s lives across a variety of different indicators and areas of inquiry. Here we examine virtually the full spectrum of the Black woman’s contemporary experience in America. And though, we find that on many accounts, significant progress has been made since key historical markers such as the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Brown v. Board of Education, and the onset of the War on Poverty, there are many areas that remain in need of dire national attention and urgent action. The following are some of the key findings from this report.
