Gines estimates that the number of African-American women philosophers in the academe is only 29.cite article | author=Robin Wilson | title= Black Women Seek Role in Philosophy | url=http://chronicle.com/free/v54/i05/05b00401.htm | work= The Chronicle of Higher Education | date=2007 | accessdate=2008-09-1]
