A group of women teamed up at Tram Stop 1 on the corner of Bourke and Spencer streets on July 22 to commemorate the 42nd anniversary of a protest against women鈥檚 unequal pay by women鈥檚 liberationists Zelda D鈥橝prano and Bon Hull. D'Aprano and Hull boarded a tram but refused to pay the full fare. The 鈥渆qual pay team鈥 talked to commuters on the busy city tram and shared views on why women are still receiving unequal pay in Australia.
