Abstract

It is known that the blacks were discriminated and oppressed in American history. Their basic rights were nearly deprived in one century, so the blacks were the earliest ones who rose up in revolt and fought for freedom and equality. In recent years, the blacks have gained relatively equal rights by their persevering efforts. But it doesn’t mean they are out of plights and get rid of status of vulnerable group.
Female, as another vulnerable group in USA, still can’t be free from the discrimination. With the emergence of the concept of human rights, women made great efforts to get their equal rights in the society, in a certain extent, they have made some achievements, and nowadays, those female rights have been displayed by the law after the Women’s Movement.
In spite of the rapid social development, the black women in the United States, as both black people and female, are still discriminated by the whites, though they have made great contributions to the nation. Through analysis of the social status of today’s black woman, readers can understand the hardship of black women better. At the same time, it tells us no matter what is the color of skin, women should be respected by everyone.
