    August marks how far into 2018 a typical black woman must work to bring home what a typical white male was paid at the end of 2017, according to the organizers of Black Women's Equal Pay Day. https://abcn.ws/2MbOq4U pic.twitter.com/K37ryK5a46

        Does this hypothetical Black woman have the same education level and level of experience in hypothetical company as the hypothetical white man? Additionally, did these two hypothetical employees start at the hypothetical company at the same time, as starting wages change w time?

        Moreover, did these two hypothetical Black and White, female and male, employees have equal performance evaluations throughout their respective tenures? As performance often has an effect on compensation, among other things other than gender

        Race, gender and ageism is holding America back. If a man&woman are doing the same job pay them equally. If a woman can do a better job than a man hire the woman. Throwing away potential employees after 45 is nonsensical. Imagine the experience they could bring to the table.

        Why is race a factor? I am all for gender pay equality, but why the implied scapegoating?
