08 Sep Pennies, Paychecks and Plans — The Economics of Aging
About this Episode
Episode 16 takes a sober look at how older Black women carry the triple jeopardy of racism, sexism and ageism—especially from our wallets. We tap into our soon-to-be launched Primetime55+ campaign saluting older Black women. They are masterful at what they do—usually overperforming—but often underacknowledged. We are also joined by younger counterparts who plan to embrace the inevitable journey of aging with grace, wisdom and reverence. We close with a debut of a new theme song that embodies the spirit and mission of Unerased | Black Women Speak.

“Older, younger sisters together, we learn from each other—mentors and proteges—in a dosie doe square dance. Together we all stand on shoulders of formerly enslaved and warrior ancestors whose sacrifice and struggle boosted them—and us—to heights once unimagined.”
