According to the American Association of University Women, AAUW, Native American women are discriminated based on gender and race, which increases the already staggering pay gap between men and women. “American Indian and Alaska Native women are paid just 57 cents for every dollar white men are paid. For Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander women, that number is 59 cents,” the organization reported. Little progress has been made to close the gap since the Equal Pay Act was signed in 1963.
