Wednesday is #equalpayday

Looking back at when @chiney told @carichampion and @jemelehill about how much she made after being the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft.

"We still are not paid equally. And if you believe that it's a myth, do the math. Unequal pay hurts women. It hurts their families. And it hurts us all. You and I have to continue fighting for equal pay for equal work. I get up each day with that on my mind, because I need to make a difference." - Lilly Ledbetter #equalpayday #equalpayforequalwork #womenshistorymonth

Wortschatz von Twitter 114

In this series I share tweets that helped me learn new words and expressions. Here are some from Germany’s top trending topic of the day: #Equalpayday.

die Entlohnung -- the compensation die Sorgearbeit -- the “care work” -- like care of children or the elderly die Teilzeit -- the part-time (work)

gleichwertig -- equivalent

_____ spricht für sich -- _____ is self-explanatory (literally: _____ speaks for itself)

I like to end my Wortschatz von Twitter posts with a practice sentence. Feel free to correct me if I make a mistake or to share a sentence of your own!

Die Sorgearbeit, die meine Mutter für unsere Familie erledigt, ist unbedingt so wesentlich als meine Arbeit im Büro.

Today is #EqualPayDay, when pay for all women catches up to the pay for all men from the previous year. 

Here’s how the pay gap breaks down. 👆

Not going to give you stats - because critical thinking and research exist for a reason (should you wish to leverage it). Just going to give you something to think about. Applies to all realms in life. Thoughtful and respectful discourse is welcome. Abusive content is not. #EqualPayDay

Not So Fun Fact: Today, April 10th, is #EqualPayDay - that means that, on average, women had to work all of 2017 AND 2018 up til today's date to make what a man made for just 2017 (and for women of color, the gap is even larger; black women will have to work until August 7 of this year to earn what white men earned the year before; for Hispanic women, it's November 1). That's fucked up. It's long past time that women get paid equally for what they do. Hit the link in my bio to learn more.
