Friends,

Today is Black Women’s Equal Pay Day — a marker of how many extra days Black women have to work in order to make the same as the average white man made last year. 

This pay gap is the result of systemic racism. In fact, on average, Black women are only paid $0.63 for every $1 a white man makes for the same work — and that can add up to almost a million dollars lost by the end of a Black woman’s career. 

Will you please add your name to our petition to pass the Equal Pay Act today?

We have to end this pay disparity once and for all!
