More troubling is the fact that, compared to other groups, for Black women, education makes the least difference in earning potential. A Black woman with a high school degree earns less than a White man who dropped out of school in the 9th grade, according to the Black Women in the United States Report. It would take two Black women with bachelor's degrees to earn as much as one white man with an associate's degree. And even among college educated women, Black women earn the least. So while a degree can never hurt, it doesn't help Black women like it would anyone else.

Something stinks here.

Look at the capitalization of black, white, women and man. Why is it "Black Women" then "Black women"?

Poor quality, no proof reading.

Kind of fits the narrative.

“Poor quality, no proof reading.”

This article is very badly written. And for another thing I don’t think this woman was a bona fide pharmacist without having a degree. Maybe the author meant she worked in a pharmacy. And I don’t know about that $12.50 per hour as an electrician either, I think they make a good deal more than that!
