alt text On this day, we will highlight the fact that the wage gap for Black women compared to non-Hispanic white men is 66 cents for full time, year-round workers. The wage gap widens to 64 cents when looking at all Black women earners (including full-time, part-time and part-year workers), as compared to all working non-Hispanic white men. These wage gaps are unacceptable.

Join advocates across the country in this social media storm to demand the Trump Administration and Congress end the attack on Black women’s economic security by protecting diversity, equity and inclusion programs, preserving federal jobs, and strengthening the workplace rights that benefit all workers. Please use #BlackWomensEqualPayDay and tag @EqualPay2dayOrg.

💵 66 cents on the dollar isn’t enough and it isn't fair. That’s what Black women working full time, year-round are paid, on average, for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men working full time, year-round. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay #PayMeWhatYouOweMe

🗓️Black Women’s Equal Pay Day marks how far into the year Black women must work to earn what white, non-Hispanic men made last year. That’s over half a year of extra work. Unacceptable. 💪 ☑️📲✍️Demand that your federal, state AND local officials take real action to close the wage gap and open the doors to economic opportunity. #AntidiscriminationEnforcement #Workplaceprotections #AffordableChildcare #LivingWage #PaidLeave #FairScheduling #Unions #BlackWomensEqualPay

📉 Black women in federal service have been disproportionately laid off—Down nearly 33% in some agencies—driven by mass cuts and a purge of DEI roles. 🚨 These aren’t just job cuts—they dismantle equity, dismantle pipelines, and dismantle hope. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

💰 Black women face a significant wage gap that adds up to a lifetime loss of nearly a million dollars — limiting their ability to build generational wealth and economic security. Closing the pay gap isn’t just about fairness today; it’s about empowering future generations to thrive. ✊🏾 #BlackWomensEqualPayDay #CloseTheWageGap #BuildGenerationalWealth

📉 Unemployment for Black women has risen in recent months: ~6 % in April, ~6.2 % in May, and ~5.8 % in June — roughly double the rate of white women. The attack on federal workers and rollback of DEI programs that open doors of economic opportunity to everyone are a contributing factor. Increasing unemployment will contribute to the wage gap for Black women. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

Breaking down unlawful barriers to employment—and actively creating opportunities for women, people of color, persons with disabilities, and other marginalized communities—is essential for building an economy that works for everyone. 💪✨ When everyone has a fair shot, we all rise together.
