Abstract
Framed by the reflections of contemporary Black domestic worker organizers, this documentary film explores how anti-Black racism has shaped the experiences of Black domestic workers. It explains how antiblackness evolved in the United States after the end of slavery and the many ways Black domestic workers fought back for their own dignity, respect, and freedom.
