Thanking Black Women
An excerpt from Upworthy -
15 real ways to thank black women for carrying the country on their backs.
by Erin Canty
Here are 15 ways to spend your money, power, time, and resources to thank black women for carrying the political load.
1. Support black women running for office.
Yard signs. Phone banks. Field work. And, most importantly, monetary donations. No black women running for office near you? No excuses. Consider contributing to Stacey Abrams, a black Democrat running for governor of Georgia.
2. Get serious about closing the wage gap.
You've likely heard the statistic that women earn 78 cents for dollar a man makes doing the same job. That's white women. Black women earn about 64 cents for every dollar. Connect with and contribute to groups like the 78 Cents Project and the National Women's Law Center, who work tirelessly to bring about change in this arena.
