Abstract
Abstract The pandemic in 2020 commenced a particularly turbulent era of racial unrest, social injustice, and violence toward Black women. Drawing from Black feminist and intersectionality theories, this qualitative inquiry explored Black women’s experiences of racism and sexism during the racial pandemic. Two hundred forty-one Black women shared their narratives and reflections. The analysis revealed two major themes: (a) racialized violence and harassment (e.g., stereotypes, dominance) and (b) their psychological consequences (e.g., anxiety, depression, racial trauma). Clinical implications are offered to support and empower Black women.
