Half of working women of color earn less than $15 an hour, according to Oxfam, the anti-poverty charity organization responsible for the research. "Women and people of color do much more than their fair share of low-wage jobs, and as wages lose value, it's becoming a civil rights crisis in this country," Oxfam stated in the study release.
