Between 2011 and 2012, 12 percent of African-American girls in public elementary and secondary schools were suspended, while just 2 percent of their white counterparts were suspended. According to the U.S. Department of Education report, black girls were suspended more than girls of any other racial group.

In a HuffPost Live conversation, freelance writer Kimberly Williams discussed how such disciplinary actions disproportionately target black girls.

“It’s a shame when you look at all of the different factors that play into it. There are a lot of socio-economic factors that play into it,” said Williams. “It’s one more thing that can prevent and hinder a group that has more milestones and obstacles to overcome.”

Unfortunately, conversations around race and gender often fail to include black girls, said Elizabeth Plank, an executive social editor at Mic.

“Women of color, especially young women of color, just fall through the cracks of these two conversations that we’re having in parallel, which is feminism, women’s rights and then race,” Plank told host Caroline Modarressay-Tehrani. “And I’m so glad that we’re talking about crime when it comes to young men and the way that we treat young men, but we need to talk about the way that we treat young women too.”

@Winston Zeddemore are you really gonna act like white girls don't also fight? :comeon:really? :comeon:


Their teen pregnancy rate is two times lower than black girls, and 4 in 10 black females are high school drop outs...some of you black men are honestly destroying these women with your unconditional defending. Do you realize how stupid it is to try and force fit black women into a college classroom or an American workforce without the proper social development or interpersonal skills? Then wonder why the there's a large gap in achievement, and job interview call backs.

Moreover some of you have the nerve to call these women "bedwenches" and "traitors" for watching shows like Scandal.
She gets sent out into this world from autonomous dysfunctional communities, where "she can do no wrong", she's the creator of pyramids, mother of the Earth and all that other metaphsyical bullshyt that doesn't even apply to an AMERICAN workforce, then when she struggles in intercultural communication you blame "the white man" and compare achievements. Which is STUPID, because blacks are a minority, and second it's a proven fact predominantly white schools offer better education and programs that prepare young women for college and adulthood. Now you got this black woman, if she's lucky enough to make it to college, becomes cultured and looks back at all these fake ass 5% nikkas calling themselves "Shaquan Lameek Ali" or whatever feeding her bullshyt and blaming the white man all while rolling his blunts using her sister's food stamp card on pastrami sandwiches and Snapple. This nikka has never left the hood, but trying to undermine SCHOLARS who are offering PRO-ACTIVE solutions to a crisis surrounding young black women.

Get the fukk outta here telling me what "white girls" do... white girls can find a fukking job, regardless if they're skilled for it or not, because THEIR community has a SYSTEM that BENEFITS THEM.

...fix OUR muthafukking community, then talk to me about what "white girls" are doing.

If the new economy is being head by females, why would people encourage the participation of black females? Did they want black males in their economy? We are unto computers and they have folks advocating for union trades that are not inclusive to put it midly.

ya know, it amazes me how people completely undermine the origins of our issues in the black community. as if this shyt just came out of nowhere, like black people are predestined to be ignorant,oversexualized,jobless, pieces of of shyt. you said black women specifically, so explain how immigrated black African women can come over here and do better than everyone? but no, you got to generalize and hate on black women as if they are the fukking problem...

some of you nikkas are downright pathetic, spewing the same hate rhetoric that racist white people use. oh and the "shaquan ameek ali" just let me know you're either a c00n or cac, what the fukk is wrong with having a name like lazasha,shakira,or quaneisha? i guess you love western basic uncreative dumbass names like becky. but face it you associate black behavior or black culture with hood/ghetto culture..

you aren't doing shyt to fix our community, except showing bad examples of ghetto dumbass black women as if you're making a point. you need go kill yourself. less c00ns in our raceto bring us down..
