August 22, 2019 marks the day that Black women need to work into the new year to make what a white man made in 2018. The pay gap costs Black women close to a million dollars over the course of their careers by some estimates — that's buying a house, sending a kid to college, or retiring with security.

The pay gap for Black women isn't closing nearly fast enough. At the current rate, Black women won't reach parity until the year 2119. None of us can afford to wait another 100 years for Black women to be paid their worth.

Time is up. Join TIME'S UP in the fight to close the Black women's pay gap and fight for safety, equity, and power for every woman.
