Slipping Through the Cracks e-bog

The problems and special needs of black women are still given inadequate attention in social science analysis. Too often black women are subsumed under the category of "e;"e;blacks"e;"e; or "e;"e;women,"e;"e; with little consideration for their unique needs. This volume focuses on black women as a special group. It includes chapters on employment, educational attainment, and job training programs which originated as papers given at a symposium on the economic status of black women, co-sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and The Review of Black Political Economy.
