We have discussed the need to get the federal minimum wage of a meager $7.25 per hour raised to lift many Americans out of poverty.

Joy is bringing Saru Jayaraman to the front of the class to break down the history of subminimum wages, how they are legal, and how we can get civically engaged around one fair wage for all.
