As we close out Women’s History Month and emerge from the historic economic disruption wrought by the pandemic, it’s an opportune moment to explore the implications of the gender and racial wage gap and other structural inequities for earnings, wealth building and overall economic security for women and particularly women of color.

Join us for a conversation with thought leaders, as we discuss whether pandemic-related outcomes are likely to perpetuate longstanding patterns of gender or racial inequality or whether this is a "flip the script" moment with the potential for the recovery to usher in an era of greater equity and equality for Black women workers and indeed, all women workers.
