\u201cLGBT Workers and the Minimum Wage\u201d is a one-pager that looks into the disparities Queer workers in America face and how raising the minimum wage will help alleviate them. The Leadership Conference Education Fund, National Center for Transgender Equality, and National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Action Fund all contributed in the creation of this text. Because of this, there is a great variety of relevant statistics throughout. There is also a good connection between these facts and idea of raising the minimum wage on a federal level. The authors also include support in the form of benefits that spread beyond the LGBTQ community which help their text appeal to a wider audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The use of the image and quote from Bayard Rustin in the upper right hand help to break up the writing and shift the readers focus away from the main text. I believe this is a good decision because it keeps the readers attention through the use of a visual aspect. However, I also believe that the size of the image is disproportionate to the page being that they included the sources into the one page format. For my one-pager I will also include an image or two but I will include them in the middle of the page and center the text around it in order to have more space for my own writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
