Want to know what it’s like to be a Black woman in the workplace? The confirmation hearing and surrounding media coverage of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is a real time case study on the double standards we often face.
Black Girl Magic is a myth. As Black people, we work twice as hard to get half as much; it’s diminishing to call it magic.
In this episode Pastor George Nicholas is joined by Chandra Redfern, CEO of the Buffalo Federation of Neighborhood Centers, to discuss her Black Girl Mastery and the importance of positive self-talk.
The confirmation hearings of Justice Jackson made plain what so many of us already know — that even the politicians who are supposed to represent everyone have been conditioned to expect Black women to be less than them. In this way, they are like many Americans. They expect Black women to work hard, but not be too successful, or to acknowledge the obstacles they’ve overcome in their pursuit of success.
