This is such trash. #DoubleTax is spot on. Establishment Dems refused to her bid for an oversight committee because they didn’t like her style. They can pound sand.
People are showing more grace to the white guy who took 18 years to cover up racist tattoos than a Black woman who has been using her platform to fight inequality since she got here.

This is #TheDoubleTax.
Jasmine Crockett’s Senate bid is infuriating some colleagues.

“She might win a primary, but she ain't winning a general in Texas," said a senior House Dem.

Another House Dem told @axios.com: “Just look to see how many House members endorse her candidacy.” www.axios.com/2025/12/12/j...

Just wondering what special services the very very rich investors in buying up apartments are getting? Lower taxes? Tax incentives? Why higher property taxes for residents, + Reston Assn fees if outside wealth buys up our housing takes public services from tax-paying residents. #taxes #doubletax

I Can’t wait to get my unemployed hands on this book!!! #doubletax #workingwhileblack
People don’t never talk about how picture day can be a really hard time for Black girls. How our features and our hair are questioned by our teachers and classmates.

🔊 I share why in this an EXCLUSIVE excerpt from #TheDoubleTax audiobook.

𝗩𝗜𝗕𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗞: Negative

Unemployment rates of black women reveal alarming conclusions, similar to #DoubleTax theory.

In @atrupar.com's Public Notice today, I wrote about how tariffs will hit the beauty industry HARD, why that's about to make being a woman WAY MORE expensive, and which women will bear the brunt of the cost.

(Spoiler: It's Black women. This is #TheDoubleTax.)

New in PN: How the “pink tariff” hurts women

"The downside of tariffs goes far beyond the stock market; it’s about who ultimately bears the cost of an economic crisis. As the data shows, women, especially Black women & girls, will once again be left feeling the pain." — @itsafronomics.bsky.social

You are certainly no imposter! I'm reading #DoubleTax now, and it's so good! One of my favorite things about it is that you end each chapter with powerful and pragmatic "Closing the Gap" solutions!

“In The Double Tax, Harvard researcher Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman summarizes the disparities that women face as they navigate life's biggest moments.”

A juggernaut in what should be required reading in intersectional education. #doubletax expertly outlines the pain points and gives us action plans.

Ich musste gestern nur 3,97 € zahlen, weil ich meine übertragbare Fahrkarte an meinen Mann ausgeliehen hatte und wir beide nicht dran gedacht haben, dass ich sie wieder für die Fahrt zur Arbeit brauche, wenn die Woche Urlaub um ist. In unserem Fall DoubleTax.

I have a lot to say about this and an op-ed is forthcoming, but all I will say is the "exit" of 319,000 Black women is no accident when you understand the barriers Black women face in the workplace.

Once again, if folks want to talk to me about this, my line is open. tinyurl.com/doubletax-pr

If reporters want to talk about how this attempted firing is affecting Black women in economics and young economists of color in the profession more broadly, feel free email my team: tinyurl.com/doubletax-pr.

I am also down to discuss how this clear racist and sexist attack has global implications.
As someone who knows Governor Lisa Cook, has written about her extensive experience and impact on the #economics profession, I am down to talk to reporters about why this attack, masked as concern, is not only racist and sexist #TheDoubleTax, but also potentially harmful on a GLOBAL scale.
(Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday called on Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook to resign, citing a call by the head of the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency urging the Department of Justice to probe Cook over alleged mortgage fraud.

THIS IS STILL RELEVANT. If people want to talk about why 300,000 Black women are leaving the labor force (hint: it's because of #TheDoubleTax), hit my line!

tinyurl.com/doubletax-pr
If you're a reporter who wants to talk about why 300,000 Black women leaving the labor force is bad for the economy, let me know.

TLDR: Black women's labor market outcomes are an economic indicator that people keep ignoring and shouldn't be. #econsky #blacksky

This is literally the question I try to answer in #TheDoubleTax:

It's expensive to be a woman in America ON PURPOSE and if women, especially Black women, weren't burdened with all these costs, our entire country would be better off.

PRE-ORDER: tinyurl.com/doubletax-order
lol I have a genuine question: Why is it so expensive to be a woman in America?
August 9, 2025 at 5:26 PM
