“LOVE DOESN’T PAY THE BILLS” – “ALL WOMEN - ALL AGES - COLLECT YOUR WAGES,” International Women’s Day March, New York City, March 12, 1977. Photo by Bettye Lane, c/o @harvard..Today, April 4, is Equal Pay Day in the United States, an event started in 1996 by the National Committee on Pay Equity to highlight the gender pay gap (defined as the average difference between men’s and women’s aggregate hourly earnings)..According to most sources, women in the United States make, on average, 77 cents for every dollar made by their male counterparts..The date of Equal Pay Day changes each year, and is different in each country where it is recognized, as the date represents how far into the year women must work in order to earn what men earned the previous year. #HavePrideInHistory #BettyeLane #Resist #EqualPayDay -- source link
