Wow, incredible list. We’re reading several of these in my graduate Black Feminist Thought class!

White feminists always want to know how to not be racist. They want to be educated. Here is the beginning of that education. Use it.

Watch: It’s your right to share your salary, not doing so could be holding you back.

At my last company, one day someone in accounting approached me at lunch and quietly told me I need to ask for a raise because I was way underpaid.

They gave me a number to shoot for. It was about twice than what I had been making at the time.

So I went online, did some research, found some figures backing up my claim, put it all together and went to my boss.

I got what I asked for.

If it hadn’t been for that person in accounting telling me I was way underpaid, I’d have never known. I went from barely scraping by to being able to have a savings account and getting all my debts paid thanks to them.

You should at least check sites like salary.com to start the process of seeing what you should be making.

Because this is crucially important

Except for the fact that 90% of the time you are under contract not to talk about your salary otherwise the company can sue you. Every job I’ve had I’ve had to sign that I won’t discuss my pay with other employees otherwise my employment is terminated and the company will take legal action.

It’s actually illegal for companies to forbid wage discussion, they’re just counting on you not knowing your rights.

It is super illegal for any company to forbid you from talking about wages with your coworkers. Please children know your rights! AND if you are noticing some sketchy shit at work. DOCUMENT. DOCUMENT. DOCUMENT. EVEN if that means like just having a work journal.

turf lesbians constantly in my industry.. goddamn.
