The Simple Truth About the Gender Pay Gap

The AAUP has put together a report that gives the facts about the differences in pay between women and men and how that difference changes depending on your race or nationality:

• The gender pay gap affects all women, but for women of color the pay shortfall is worse. Hispanic women’s salaries show the largest gap, at 54 percent of white men’s earnings. Black women’s salaries stand at 64 percent of white men’s earnings. White men are used as a benchmark because they make up the largest demographic group in the labor force.
