Answer:

"double burden" or "second shift"

Explanation:

"Double burden" is also known as<em> second shift, double duty or double day.</em> This is a type of workload in which a person tries to work hard in order to earn money and in addition to this, he also does domestic chores which are unpaid.

She also acted as a "Mammy," a black woman who takes care of a white family's children. This was very prominent during the <em>"Reconstruction Era</em>." As a Mammy, she is unpaid for her labor. Such situation used to be accepted in the society when discrimination was not yet banned.
