“We are trying to achieve pay equity across all genders and races in the world in our lifetime,” she says. “As in right now.” - @k8em0 https://t.co/ubLLEO0mFe via @Verge
Big shoutout to @BTPipeline for trailblazing *support* of black job candidates in my latest interview w @elinormills

“Google violated the California Equal Pay Act & other state laws”
My lawsuit against Microsoft would have also found they were in violation of CA State laws, but I brought my suit where I live (WA) where there are no such laws.
This is why I started

“Women leaving the workplace has cost all of us in dollars too. In 2020 alone, American Women’s workforce exits cost the U.S. economy $650 billion and globally cost the world at least $800 billion in lost income in one year. “

While we all come to terms with the reality where young women’s contributions are underestimated, & scientific grants & business investments continue to elude even the most proven & qualified of us, we should at least get behind the @PayEquityNow Pledge

Take a moment to check out @MindaHarts Manager’s Pledge at the individual manager level, & consider the @PayEquityNow Pledge for driving economic accountability & justice throughout your organization.
It’s time to acknowledge bias & create a better workplace.
#BlackHistoryMonth
Until we address fundamental inequity & the wealth gap, automation will replace workers as it already has in many industries, widening that existing gap. It fertilizes seeds of revolution.
#UBI would offset negative effects of industrial & commercial automation that foment unrest
Major difference between my attempted class action gender discrimination lawsuit against Microsoft & this Riot case?
I live in Washington State that doesn’t have as strict laws as California.
My case was not granted class status despite findings by Dept of Labor.
@PayEquityNow
The system is not designed for justice.
It’s designed to dispatch problematic liabilities in favor of corporations, plaintiffs acting as kindling in the fires of this broken legal system.
That’s why I created the @ManglonaLab & the @PayEquityNow Foundation

This is also why the @PayEquityNow Foundation endowed @PennStateLaw with $1M to create the https://t.co/qv7WjGQVU6 - to help seek economic justice in the courts that fail so many of us, like it failed the women of Microsoft when my case was denied class status on technicalities.
When I ended my lawsuit & founded @PayEquityNow I asked Microsoft to take the PEN Pledge:
1. Admit bias exists & 1 symptom is pay inequity
2. Audit for pay/promo inequity
3. Correct gaps when found
They refused.
Why do companies fear labor laws so much they don’t want any data?

I’m a half Chamorro Cyber security pro who created some of the biggest bug bounties in the world to help us all enjoy the Internet more safely, founded my own company, & @PayEquityNow to achieve Pay Equity in our lifetime for all genders & races.
Today is #EqualPayDay. Women & underrepresented minorities are not expected to gain pay equity for over 200 years globally. That's not good enough! Take the @PayEquityNow Pledge today to help achieve equal pay in our lifetime! #EqualPayDay2021 https://t.co/pATu56gRI4
Companies keep getting away with empty platitudes instead of systemic change.
This isn’t going to change unless *everyone* stands up for especially black women in the workplace.
Amazon should take the @PayEquityNow Pledge as a start to end underleveling & underpayment
