| + | Unlike the white women urban workers we read about for this week, this piece shows how little choice black women urban workers had in occupations. Most were domestic servants. Even those who were educated or had other job training could not get the jobs they wanted and were qualified for. The racial discrimination they experienced kept them locked into a job they felt was socially degrading and that provided little personal freedom and low wages. Due to being turned down, or even the fear of being turned down, kept them from seeking jobs outside of domestic service. So while white women with an education or job training could afford to be independent, black women were less likely to be able to experience this type of independence. |
