She notes that there is still a lot of work to do, but lays out a few recent wins that women have had in the fight for wage equity. Rowe-Finkbeiner also discusses the importance of Frances McDormand's acceptance speech at the Oscar's - specifically her mention of the inclusion rider. She says that the inclusion rider could have a significant impact on the entertainment industry and beyond.
