We’re shining a light on brilliance that too often goes unseen. During Women’s History Month, we’re spotlighting Black women in architecture — a
field where Black women represent just about 0.3 percent of licensed architects in this country. Think about that. The people who design our skylines, our schools, our neighborhoods — and yet they are almost invisible in the rooms where those decisions are made. Why are the numbers still so low? What barriers remain? And for the Black women who have broken through that concrete ceiling — what did it take to get there?
