The 19th: Why Native American Women’s Equal Pay Day is marked November 30
November 30. 2022
Executive Director Noreen Farrell is featured in The 19th speaking about Native Women’s Equal Pay Day:
Farrell emphasizes that the wealth gap isn’t tied solely to differences in salaries. “We know that there’s historic barriers to economic opportunity for Native women, and they just get compounded when it comes to pay,” she said. “There’s a lack of affordable health care access, equity, reproductive health care access and a lack of food sovereignty for Native American women. And all of these things come in a perfect storm when there isn’t enough money in the paycheck.”
