Resilience: Two Sides of the Same Coin
summary
Data show unemployment spiking to nearly 16% after the pandemic and Black and Latinx women each losing over half a million jobs, while almost 1 million mothers leave the workforce and one in four children face food insecurity in 2020. Interviews with 50+ women of color link higher occupational prestige to falling self‑esteem for Black workers. Proven steps include naming and storytelling, routine team check‑ins and pulse surveys, using tools like Trello to coordinate coverage, and organizational fixes to diffuse responsibility and hold leaders accountable.
