Southern attitude keeps women on pedestal off payroll
The article argues Southern culture assigns women a pedestal role that limits pay and career status. It cites Emma Darnell and Gay Cobb on wage gaps, noting black women earn substantially less than white women and men in Southern cities like Atlanta and Mississippi. It contrasts Southern norms with outside the South where women leave jobs for family.
