My mom sent me an article today that appeared in the Washington Post, “Survey Paints Portrait of Black Women in America.”

The article is part of a series.

The basis of this article, as well as subsequent articles in the series, is from a survey conducted by The Washington Post and the Kaiser Family Foundation.

It included interviews with over eight hundred Black women.

“…(it) represents the most extensive exploration of the lives and views of African American women in decades.”

The findings shatter stereotypes and misconceptions.

Furthermore, the interviewees add dimension, substance and provide a more accurate assessment of “Who” the Black Woman in America is today…and what is truly important and motivating to her.

Check it out.
