Claim: “It wasn’t all women that lost jobs (in the December jobs report), it was mostly Black and Latina women. In fact, white women gained employment.” (Sarah Godlewski, 2021-01-09)
Evidence (2021-08-04): In addition, many state policymakers focused on Black women’s work and work ethic, even though Black women have historically had higher work rates than white women. Some states passed "farm policies" cutting off ADC benefits during planting and harvest seasons to coerce Black parents to work in agriculture even if no paying jobs were available. These issues were not confined to the South: some policymakers in the North denounced Black migrants moving to their cities, who they claimed were unwilling to work and only seeking more generous ADC benefits. [...] Historically, Black women have always had higher work rates than white women[66] but were often segregated into jobs with low pay, such as domestic service. Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, opened up new economic opportunities for Black and other women. More Black women moved into higher-paying, professional jobs in the 1970s, though many continued to do the same work they had always done. The entry of more married white mothers into the labor market in the 1970s contributed to the rise of jobs in commercial child care centers, many of which Black women filled.[67] Those jobs were unstable and low paid. And, even before a recession hit in 1973, the unemployment rate for Black women exceeded the rate for the country overall.[68] Black and other single mothers who could not find work or get unemployment insurance increasingly applied for AFDC.

Evidence (2018-04-06): By December 2017, the unemployment rates for the four major race and ethnicity groups had returned to their prerecession levels. The rates for Blacks and Hispanics have remained higher than the rates for Whites and Asians. In December 2017, the unemployment rate for Blacks (6.8 percent) was 3.1 percentage points above that for Whites (3.7 percent) but the lowest in the series’ history. The December 2017 rate for Hispanics (4.9 percent) was 1.2 percentage points higher than the rate for Whites but also little different from the series’ low.5 The unemployment rate for Asians (2.5 percent) was 1.2 percentage points lower than that for Whites. [...] During the recession, employment declined sharply for all major race and ethnicity groups, but the decline was most pronounced among Blacks. The employment–population ratio for Blacks declined by almost 7 percentage points during and after the recession. At the low point in July 2011, only about half (51.0 percent) of Blacks were employed. Consistent with historical patterns, Black men fared worse than did men of other race and ethnicity groups. In fact, from 2009 to 2011, their employment–population ratio fell below the ratio for White women and was level with the ratio for Asian women. The ratio for Black women trended similarly to the ratios for women of other race and ethnicity groups.

Evidence (2022-08-19): Health Status - Large shares of lower-income women and women with Medicaid report being in fair or poor health. One in five Black (20%) and Hispanic (19%) women report being in fair or poor health compared to 12% of White women and 9% of Asian women. [...] Smaller shares of Asian and Black women than White women report that a provider has asked about or discussed mental health issues such as anxiety and depression with them. [...] Among women who have been treated in at least one of these ways, many say it was because of their age and/or gender. Black and Hispanic women are more likely than White women to say they were treated this way because of their race/ethnicity.

Evidence (2023-01-23): A Facebook post published on January 19, 2023, claimed that actor Gina Carano was paid $115 million after she was "Wrongfully Terminated" from the Star Wars spin-off show The Mandalorian.

[...] There appears to be no evidence that Gina Carano has received $115 million from Disney after she left the show in 2021. The article was published by America's Last Line of Defense, a parody news site.

Evidence (2024-05-11): A month after Disney and Lucasfilm filed paperwork to have Gina Carano’s wrongful-discharge and sex-discrimination suit tossed out, the fired Mandalorian star has kicked back to keep her Elon Musk-supported legal action off the mat. "After admitting that they discriminated against Carano for her personal political beliefs and subjected her to disparate treatment from her similarly situated male co-stars, The Walt Disney Company, Lucasfilm LTD, and Huckleberry Industries (collectively, "Defendants") assert that the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives them absolute immunity," says the May 9 response to defendants motion to dismiss from Carano’s Schaerr Jaffe lawyers filed in federal court here in LA (read it here). "Defendants are incorrect." [...] A hearing on the dismissal motion by Disney and the other defendants against former MMA star Carano has been set for June 12 in DTLA before Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett.

Evidence (2024-02-15): Gina Carano, the former MMA fighter and "Deadpool" star, is currently suing Disney for discrimination and wrongful termination. Carano was one of the main stars of the "Star Wars" TV show "The Mandalorian," playing Cara Dune in the first two seasons, but she was fired three years ago for "social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities" that were deemed "abhorrent and unacceptable." Carano did have quite a bit of outspoken, far right-wing commentary on her social feeds, many of which were called anti-semitic or transphobic. Now, she's trying to fire back at Disney in a lawsuit — with the help of Elon Musk. But does Carano actually stand a chance of winning this suit? [...] It's also worth noting here that Disney and Lucasfilm never recast the role of Cara Dune following Carano's firing. Los Angeles entertainment attorney Camron Dowlatshahi, a partner at Mills Sadat Dowlat LLP, also added some context, explaining that Disney very well may have had a clause in Carano's contract that would protect them from a suit such as this.

Evidence (2024-03-22): Former actor Gina Carano has filed a lawsuit against the Walt Disney Corporation and Lucasfilm for alleged wrongful termination. The suit was filed in federal court in California. Carano alleges she was fired from her role on the Disney+ show Mandalorian for voicing right-wing opinions online. She is seeking a court order requiring Lucasfilm reinstate her or compensate her for at least $75,000. Carano claims in the suit that she suffered emotional damage and lost millions of dollars in income. Carano also claims that Disney and Lucasfilm discriminated against her, and alleges that male colleagues were not held to similar standards. Carano stated that X, formerly known as Twitter, was covering the costs of the suit. She alleges that she had been the target of a "bullying smear campaign" intended to make "an example out of me" by others. In February 2021, Carano posted on Instagram comparing mask mandates to the Holocaust. She had also suggested voter fraud had occurred in the 2020 presidential election and put "beep/bop/boop" in her then Twitter profile after fans asked her to display her pronouns in her account’s bio. Pedro Pascal, the current lead actor of Mandalorian, has a trans sister whom he supports. [...] Carano’s lawsuit spends countless pages complaining that her political views about Covid-19, the 2020 election, and transgender persons were either not protected by or punished by Disney while the politically liberal views of her male colleagues were ignored by the corporation.

Evidence (2024-06-13): A federal judge has signaled that Gina Carano‘s lawsuit against Disney and Lucasfilm over her termination from The Mandalorian will be allowed to proceed as the court considers whether the First Amendment allows private companies to sever ties with employees who publicly clash with their values. [...] Carano sued after Lucasfilm in 2021 announced that she wouldn’t be returning to the series after sharing a post in which she said, "most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews." The post continued, "How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?" She advanced claims that Disney violated California labor laws prohibiting employers from directing workers’ political activity and reprimanding employees on the basis of political speech. [...] Under those two cases, Disney said that the state can’t force employers engaged in "expressive activity," — in Disney’s case movies and TV shows — to convey its message through speakers like Carano who allegedly impair its ability to properly express its values, which it said include respect, integrity and inclusion. The First Amendment, it claimed, entitles it to protect its speech in the Star Wars series from association with views that it and many viewers considered offensive and contrary to its message.

Evidence (2024-02-06): Actor Gina Carano sued Disney and Lucasfilm on Tuesday for firing her from "The Mandalorian" in 2021, over a social media post in which she compared being a Republican to being Jewish during the Holocaust.

The case alleges that Disney is at fault for Carano’s former agency dropping the actor. Carano’s lawsuit, which includes several elaborate "Star Wars" references, says Disney and Lucasfilm "made it clear that only one orthodoxy in thought, speech, or action was acceptable in their empire, and that those who dared to question or failed to fully comply would not be tolerated."
