marks Equal Pay Day, the day women’s annual earnings catch up with what

You can check out some history of unequal pay for women in the United States in this article by Kirsten Swinth, and you can read more about taking action on the National Committee for Pay Equity website.

Or watch this funny video about the issue and demand “a small box discount from your big box store.”
