Unemployment in the pandemic has fallen disproportionately on Latina women, with many in the service industry. Here’s how gender, race, and occupation help determine who is most vulnerable in the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Illustration: Crystal Tai

Amazing how we track based on gender, race, colour etc. But we are told not to treat gender, race, colour etc differently or special. I am trully confused.

[oliverallen]

The headline and your data are misleading.

let's also make a comment to support a narrative that doesn't exist: both times women have outnumbered men in the workforce, we have faced a financial recession. Therefore women are the reason for financial rescissions

I don’t understand why so many people are getting upset about this video... if anything it’s going against the notion that women are being targeted. Most people when they hear that women are losing their jobs more than men will thing it's some sort of gender discrimination. WSJ just pointed out that it’s not gender discrimination at all and just the fact that they so happen to work in an industry hit harder.

Unrelated to the video: remember when wsj tried to kill ad revenue for creators?

Hey WSJ


Dont start sexiest thing here, Coronavirus and black racism are enough for this world to handle

[alexmikhylov]

data: current recession is caused by pandemic and so affects occupations that involve close personal contact and represent non-essential services disproportionately more than those that can be done remotely or are essential
wsj: GENDER! GENDER AND RACE!

Why group Black and latinas together here? Doesn’t seem to match the data.

[merlinsandra]

May God provide strength to those who are heavy laden, weakened with worldly pain and lost their jobs due to pandemic... the very source of their income and living!! May God show them channels to works or jobs to possible best that can help them and their families!!...
