有色人种女性在物理学领域的代表性严重不足。在2002年至2012年期间,只有1%的物理专业毕业生是黑人女性,另外1%是拉丁美洲人;在这些年里,只有61名美国印第安女性完成了物理学学位(在48,000名物理专业学生中)。这种隔离可能会导致物理专业的有色人种女性在挑战性材料之外必须面对的额外障碍。在这篇文章中,我们利用定性研究结果来描述有色人种女性面临的常见障碍。但是,各部门可以采取慎重的步骤,使任职人数不足不至于变成孤独和孤立。我们描述了一个部门的特点,在那里有色人种的妇女报告说,他们正在蓬勃发展。最后,我们以物理系可以采取的具体步骤来支持有色人种的女性物理专业。
Women of color are deeply underrepresented in physics. Between 2002 and 2012, only 1% of graduating physics majors were Black women and another 1% were Latinas; only 61 American Indian women total completed degrees in physics in those years (out of 48,000 physics majors). This isolation can lead to additional obstacles that women of color majoring in physics must face above and beyond the challenging material. In this article we draw on qualitative findings to describe common obstacles women of color face. However, departments can take deliberate steps so that underrepresentation need not turn into loneliness and isolation. We describe the characteristics of a department where women of color report that they are thriving. We end with concrete steps physics faculty can take to support women physics majors of color.
