このコンテンツについて

Anna writes searing observations about today's society and the many burdens it places on women of colour. This is a masterpiece. KELECHI OKAFOR

Bold, unflinching, and revolutionary . . . A life-changing read. GABRIELLE UNION

Provocative and uncompromising. MIKKI KENDALL, bestselling author of Hood Feminism

A must-read . . . Opoku-Agyeman offers bold solutions for how we can fight for a future that leaves no one behind. ALYSSA MILANO

The 'pink tax' has gained widespread recognition in recent years: we know that it costs more to be a woman, both in terms of lost earnings and the higher price of products marketed to women. But what happens when you look at the costs across racial lines?

In The Double Tax, Harvard researcher Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman summarizes the disparities that women face as they navigate life's biggest moments. The numbers reveal that Black and white women lead vastly different lives, marked by dramatic gaps in job opportunities, salaries, housing costs, childcare access and generational wealth. She coins this gap as the 'double tax' - the compounded cost of racism and sexism.

Through rigorous research and interviews with women, Opoku-Agyeman calculates the extra money, time and effort that women are forced to pay at every stage of their life. She also offers actionable solutions for how everyday people, local communities and global leaders alike can help relieve women of these costs for good.

Only by understanding where the gaps are and where the double tax arises can we begin to even the playing field for all.

批評家のレビュー

Anna writes searing observations about today's society and the many burdens it places on women of colour. This is a masterpiece and a call to action for all people to finally not only level out the playing field but repair the road taken to get there. (Kelechi Okafor)
Effortlessly accessible and wildly entertaining. The Double Tax serves as an ultra-readable wake-up call and is required reading for anyone who wants to be a better citizen. (Chelsea Fagan, founder of The Financial Diet)
I did not expect to laugh so hard and ache so deeply while reading this book. The Double Tax goes beyond collecting receipts and tabulating the buried costs that women face. It is a powerful reclamation of womanhood. (Dr. Joy Buolamwini, founder of the Algorithmic Justice League)
The Double Tax is the kind of book that stops you in your tracks. It confirms, provokes, and inspires. With scorching storytelling, sharp critique, and deep insight, Opoku-Agyeman voices a reality that's both deeply personal and structurally fundamental. (Dr. Uché Blackstock, bestselling author of LEGACY)
This groundbreaking, timely, and crucial work shines a light on how persistent gender inequality is while offering bold solutions to address these injustices. Opoku-Agyeman's insightful and compelling analysis is essential reading. (Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action)
The Double Tax powerfully documents how costly womanhood is . . . while centering evidence that explores the cross section of race, gender, and class. An eye-opener and a rousing call to action! (Dr Iris Bohnet, Albert Pratt Professor of Business and Government at Harvard University)
