Fresh Take: Naomi Cahn and June Carbone on Building a Just Economy

Contrary to popular belief, the gender wage gap is widening, not narrowing. Naomi Cahn and June Carbone, authors of FAIR SHAKE: WOMEN AND THE FIGHT TO BUILD A JUST ECONOMY, discuss why working women still lag behind men both in wage equity and in positions of power.

Naomi Cahn is the Justice Anthony M. Kennedy distinguished professor of law at the University of Virginia School of Law. June Carbone is the Robina chair of law, science, and technology at the University of Minnesota Law School.

Naomi, June, and Amy discuss:

• How the "winner takes all" economy rewards men and not women
• The "triple bind" that sidelines women in the workplace
• How things get even more complicated for working parents
• What solutions for this problem look like at a societal, organizational, and personal level
