There is so much social, economical and political injustice in America due to sexism and racism and it needs to be fixed. According to Kevin Miller of AAUW, “Did you know that in 2015, women working full time in the United States typically were paid just 80 percent of what men were paid, a gap of 20 percent?” This shows that not only are women being discriminated against socially, but also economically.
