Racial discrimination in law enforcement is constantly in the news these days. Another form of discrimination that does not make headlines often is gender discrimination.
Gender discrimination is rampant in American society. This notion is particularly true in the field of employment. Women compose approximately 49 percent of the US labor pool. Women have elevated to chief executive officer in a few major US corporations. But women are CEO’s in merely 3 percent of public US firms.
Furthermore, white college-graduated males earn 40 percent more than white women with the same credentials.
