Description:This dramatic first person account of seeking equal pay within a religious publishing house gives readers an up-close view of the explosion when youthful courage and entrenched corporate sex discrimination collide. As a young assistant editor at Pacific Press Publishing Association (owned by the Seventh-day Adventist church), Merikay McLeod asked for wages comparable to those paid a man doing the same work. Her husband was out of work and wanted to return to college, their car was In bad repair, and they were reduced to returning groceries for change to do their laundry. The Pacific Press manager not only said, “No.” He said, “Never!” And the consequences of that “Never!” are the gripping struggle for justice recounted in Betrayal. First published in 1985 and the recipient of the 1986 Angel Award of Excellence, This 40th anniversary edition includes three new chapters that add to the depth of this inspiring story. A church historian unearths the history of paying women less than men. Merikay’s colleague in the struggle, Lorna Tobler, exposes her personal efforts to encourage corporate change and the corporate rebuffs she received, and the EEOC attorney who saw the struggle through to its conclusion explains the legal decisions as the case maneuvered through the court system.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
