When it comes to marginalized intersectional identities, Black women and women of color are no stranger. But if we zoom out, what does that experience look like across systems, access, and paychecks? Today we're excited to be joined by economist, advocate, and author Anna Gifty. She’s here to talk about her new book, ‘The Double Tax: How Women of Color Are Overcharged and Underpaid,’ a powerful, data-driven exploration of the hidden costs of being both a woman and a racial minority in today’s economy. During this conversation, we dive into the concept of the “double tax,” the systemic forces that undervalue women of color, and what it means to work towards an economy that truly works for everyone.
