Preview

When actors receive their Academy Award known as the Oscar they often thank their producer, director, family members and even their agent.

Last February, Patricia Arquette won the Best Supporting Actress award for her role in the film “Boyhood.” She used her moment on stage to call attention to pay inequality in Hollywood.

it is our time to have wage equality once and for all, and equal rights for women in the United States of America.”

Arquette was talking about a socio-political issue in America. For every dollar a man earns, women are paid around 77 cents. This issue is called the gender pay gap.
