Pay me like you pay them! It’s not just a MESSage. It’s survival. Today is Black Women’s Equal Pay Day — the day we finally catch up to what white men were paid last year. Same job. Same qualifications. Different paycheck. We’re still out here making 66 cents on the dollar. That’s not a gap. That’s a robbery in broad daylight. Thousands lost every year. Hundreds of thousands over a lifetime. Money we never see. Opportunities we never get. Wealth we never build. We are not your discount labor. We are not your silent workhorses. We are not your afterthought. Black women deserve to be paid in full. No more waiting for recognition. No more working twice as hard for half as much. Run us what we’re owed. With interest. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay #PayBlackWomen #PayMeLikeYouPayThem #ThisIsTheMESSage #MessInABottle
