“Black women being paid equal isn’t any social initiative, but it is their right. It is high time the true pay equity addresses the racialized and gendered injustices black women face every day. Black women should be paid what they truly deserve, and not what white men think they deserve.” The wage gap is compounded by racism, and the laws are required not only to be built but to combat discriminatory pay practices. Not just Equal pay, but these women deserve paid leaves & sick lives, affordable childcare, and a wage that is in line with their talent, skills, and work hours.
