Melinda Gates: “Our economies all over the world are built on the backs of women’s unpaid labor”
In her new book, Moment of Lift, Gates shows the how society benefits when “a woman gets her full voice and her full decision-making authority.”
Melinda Gates has a confession to make: Bill and their kids weren’t always particularly good at cleaning up fairly. Years ago, the rule at the Gates house was that everyone helps do the dishes after dinner. But Melinda realized that she was always the last to leave the kitchen because, it seemed, some chores were being almost willfully ignored.
