all about The Man

this story made the rounds a couple of weeks ago, didn't make much of a blip (thanks, terry) but here's another go at it from alas, a blog.

when it was discussed on another blog, a question was raised about the disparity between black and white women; i was sort of struck by that, too, and came to the conclusion that it was because black women tended to stay in the workforce. meaning, we don't go on sabbatical, on leave, work part time, etc. most of us either can't take that time (is there another breadwinner in the house??) or won't (i've worked my ass off for this job and you'll pry it from my dead brown fingers.)

but this is a mere digression: the real news - all women still make FAR LESS than our fair brothers. (cough) still. STILL.

even playing field my ass.
