LoR FB Page – Black women and Latinas paid so poorly, catching up is almost impossible – 343868642933616

While I am concentrating on our presentation for Praxis, here is another conversation starter.

We have talked about this before the pay gap–not between men and all women, but between white women and women of color.

The article below lays it out.

I want you to think of this on several tracks–but I want you to also focus on it from the angle of relational ethics; though this is not an official entry, this does inform, in a real but mostly invisible, or perhaps more accurately, ignored, element that affects relationships across racial groups.

It’s certainly never talked about, and in social justice circles, it’s only mentioned in passing. But beyond the obvious, how does this play out at both the micro and the macro levels?

It certainly is an issue here at LoR. If one of the goals here are to forge and maintain durable, authentic relationships with parity, candor, and mutuality at the core, how does the salary gap affect that?

Other queries and reflections are welcome.

No hearts or likes, comments only.
