During the late 1800s, many African American women earned a living through domestic work, such as cooking, cleaning, and childcare for white families. Others found employment in agriculture, particularly in the rural South, or in textile mills and factories. Some women also engaged in entrepreneurship, starting small businesses like boarding houses or selling goods. Despite facing significant economic and social challenges, these women contributed to their families' incomes and the broader community.
