Attached: 1 image Happy #BlackHistoryMonth ! I haven't made it to Black History yet. I'm still on white US history. Q: Enough about racism for a second. Take a break! I'm worried about gender issues in the US too. For example, why is the gender pay gap in the US so large? It's one of the worst in the OECD! A: You know why. Racism! In the US, the pay gap between white men and white women, is smaller than the pay gap between white women and Black and Latinx women. https://data.oecd.org/earnwage/gender-wage-gap.htm #BlackMastodon

The US has just gone full anti-DEI, hating on Black women. We will close the pay equity gap more by reducing this racism and misogynoir, than by increasing white women's pay.

@mekkaokereke for reals, THANK YOU! we have the most degrees, certifications, experience and whatever else and yet we make a fraction of white women make. A FRACTION. that's why my feminism will be intersectional or it will be bullshit.
