The gender and racial wage gap, in one chart

And all women still lag far behind white men, who made $21.86 in median wages last year.

1. Either white males simply work harder than everyone else,

or racism and misogyny are still severe problems.

2. Another example of how the fiction of Republican equal opportunity...

has nothing to do with Democratic equality.
