Shownotes Transcript

Us women have come a long way to close the pay gap... or have we? Legal scholars Naomi Cahn, June Carbone, and Nancy Levit would argue that we are actually further away from pay parity than we think and there is much more work to be done for us to have a just economy. Despite leaning in, getting advanced degrees, and working twice as hard, women's wages are still being eroded and there is still barely any female representation in lucrative industries like tech, finance, and law (as they've personally witnessed as lawyers and law professors themselves). So, what can be done? In their new book, Fair Shake: Women and the Fight to Build a Just Economy) and in this podcast episode, they not only identify the root problem and share real-life stories from women fighting the good fight, but they also share a path forward that both women and allies can walk together.
