摘要
African American women must navigate higher education, in particular, clinical doctoral programs, as a gendered racial minority. These women often endure multiple levels of discrimination to obtain their degree. Findings of this study highlight these experiences and suggest the importance of increasing supports for African American women in clinical doctoral programs. Practices and supports should be put in place so that students of color are not marginalized because of their race. Las mujeres afroamericanas tienen que pasar por la educacion superior, y particularmente en programas de doctorado clinico, como una minoria racial y de sexo. Estas mujeres sufren con frecuencia multiples niveles de discriminacion para poder obtener su titulacion. Los hallazgos de este estudio destacan estas experiencias y sugieren la importancia de incrementar los apoyos para mujeres afroamericanas en programas de doctorado clinico. Deberian implementarse practicas y apoyos para que las estudiantes de color no sean marginadas por su raza.
