Wow. It’s been 24 hrs and we’re still in our feelings from yesterday’s #BlackWomensEqualPay chat! What a great convo! We’re so happy to welcome new women into our #TRIBE!

While complaining about being a broke b!tch (I was likely teasing my guy friend about him having to pay for a lunch he wanted) he asked how much I made. When I told him, he said he made 4xs what I did for literally half the time (he was PT) and half the work. #BlackWomensEqualPay

@youneedtribe @createcultivate @21Ninety @blkcreatives A3 my second job out of undergrad. I had heard it all the time before, but that’s the moment when I truly felt the ‘twice as good’ saying. I knew I could compete but it frustrated me I wasn’t being fairly compensated. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[FirstGenRise 🌞 @FirstGenRise]

@youneedtribe @createcultivate @21Ninety @blkcreatives My bro & I spoke about that scene in Insecure cuz I share the same profession as Molly. It was a powerful scene! Next steps were considered & new approaches moving forward was strategized. The main issue was I enjoyed my job but learned my counterparts were getting paid more.

@21Ninety @createcultivate @blkcreatives @youneedtribe Although I want to be more realistic in my negotiations, there is something to be said for just assuming that people are just waiting for you to negotiate with them. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

[M. Michelle Derosier @mmderosier]

@21Ninety @createcultivate @blkcreatives @youneedtribe I come from a stock of Haitians who see negotiating as matter of fact as breathing. My mom once told me to call Amazon & tell them the price she was willing to pay for an exercise bike on their site. She was so serious about me negotiating w Jeff Bezos. 🤷🏿‍♀️

[TRIBE @youneedtribe]

Let us know any advice you have. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[WorkParty @itsaworkparty]

Wrapping up this #BlackWomensEqualPay chat with a call for advice! @blkcreatives, @21Ninety + @youneedtribe What advice would you give to a fellow black women on demanding the pay they deserve?

Let's spread the wealth ladies! 🙌

[TRIBE @youneedtribe]

Ask for more than you’re worth. All they can say is no and you’re likely to be negotiated down to around your true value. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[TRIBE @youneedtribe]

Those informal peer networks are vital in bridging the pay gap. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[Diamond Hinton @neptunesrainn]

@ladydimplez92 @youneedtribe @createcultivate @blkcreatives @21Ninety I COMPLETELY agree!! If your home is about to go into foreclosure or you’re about to be evicted ? Take the job! However if you are not in a desperate situation then NEVER settle!

[Gabrielle 💬 @gabalexa]

@youneedtribe @createcultivate @blkcreatives @21Ninety So far I’ve been sticking around and it has only resulted in me feeling resentful. Moving forward, I’m just trying to walk away when the money isn’t right. 🤘🏾

[TRIBE @youneedtribe]

In case you missed our Q3! Share your stories. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[WorkParty @itsaworkparty]

@youneedtribe Have you had a defining moment where you realized you were being underpaid? What was that experience like? #BlackWomensEqualPay

[TRIBE @youneedtribe]

EVERYTHING! Okurrrr. #BlackWomeneEqualPay

[21Ninety @21Ninety]

Everything is Negotiable. Salary, vacation days, equity, title. There are many avenues to getting value and finding a compromise that works for you! #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

[WorkParty @itsaworkparty]

Don't settle for less than you feel you're worth. It's important that we demand more and the right opportunity will be right around the coner for you. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[WorkParty @itsaworkparty]

YES! Other benefits like a phone bill covered, additional WFH days, health benefits, paid city transportation, etc. These are all valuable benefits as well. #BlackWomensEqualPay

[WorkParty @itsaworkparty]

Make your needs known and remember that when the opportunity is yours, it will align. #BlackWomensEqualPay
