In this episode of the Sentinel, we celebrate the start of Women’s History Month this March by exploring the gender pay gap – an issue that not only affects Native women, but also their families and communities as well. As the United States recently commemorated the 15th Anniversary of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, some news outlets have recently announced progress in narrowing the pay gap. However, deep and pervasive inequality still exists for Native women. In this episode, we discuss recent research stating their earnings at 51 cents on the dollar compared to white men. There is a critical need to address this statistic, so join us as we discuss this important subject that touches on issues of gender equity, economic well-being and security, family stability, caregiving, and more.
