Today is #BlackWomensEqualPay Day, when Black women’s pay catches up to what white, non-Hispanic men were paid in 2018. That means Black women must work 𝟐𝟎 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 to be paid what white men are paid in 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟏𝟐. It’s way past time to fix this gap.

Happy #Juneteenth! While we continue the work to get fully free, we're celebrating this historic day and debuting #RevolutionaryReads, a curated list of the books beloved by GGE staff. This month's theme is, of course, Black Liberation. Enjoy, loves! bit.ly/31JSrT1

We know from our #StatusofWomenandGirls report: many working mothers in MN are the primary breadwinner in the family, esp women of color & American Indian women. So when we invest in women and girls & demand #MomsEqualPay, we invest in families & communities.

Poverty rates are high for MN's female-headed families, esp for Latina, African Immigrant, & American Indian families. With affordable childcare out of reach, moms also shoulder the disproportionate burden of unpaid caregiving to both elders and children. #MomsEqualPay

Girls, particularly girls of color, are disproportionately likely to cross over from the child welfare system to the juvenile justice system. #NationalFosterCareMonth #GirlsInJJ

Culture change & systems change is what @NationalYWI is working towards. And addressing the adultification bias that Black girls face is an immense part of that. This research is so important.

When I was helping to lead my school walk out: Principal: "Naomi is being very aggressive" Mom: "She just asked you to re-instate the state required recess that you took from her and the other kids working on the walkout" #LetBlackGirlsBeGirls share your story @GtownLawPovCntr

Thanks @Jeree_Thomas for uplifting the connection between adultification bias and the justice system. Viewing Black kids as older than their age has been proven to translate to holding them more criminally liable. @GeorgetownLaw #LetBlackGirlsBeGirls EndAdultificationBias.org
