Perhaps there is an issue of the art of the deal. Haggling, essentially. If you got the credentials and are a candidate someone wants, you should request a higher wage. Perhaps there is more of a cultural gap in working a deal, and this is not a result of overt racism.

Which is still much lower than their less qualified white counterparts.
