- W4307687310 abstract "It has been proclaimed that the American Dream is very much alive, and this proclamation is often called upon to manifest through Barack Obama's presidency. The idea that race is no longer central to the experiences of racially subordinated groups has been ill-founded and misguided. The myth of the American Dream has been challenged and continues to ring hollow for many Black people in America. A post-racial society is, in fact, the myth that has been broken by various highlighted events in the past ten years. The structural foundation of what it means to pursue the American Dream is imperfect and not realized for all racial groups at the same level. In this chapter, I illustrate this by looking at the challenges and narratives of Black professionals who are perceived as having broken through barriers to achieve educational and socioeconomic advancements and yet still face significant challenges reaching the pinnacle of their profession. Through the lens of Black women lawyers, who are significantly marginalized in white institutional spaces and encounter the most difficulty rising to the rank of partner in elite law firms, I challenge the idealized notion of the American Dream. This research highlights how Black women professionals face incredible obstacles gaining entry to elite law firms, as well as accessing professional development and advancement opportunities, further thwarting this notion of the American Dream." @default.
