We Have an Opportunity
#TRUTH
- We know that there is a wealth gap in the United States.
- We know that Black people live at the bottom of that gap.
- We know that women fare worse than men when it comes to access to opportunities.
- We know that the wealth gap is not due to the inferior efforts of individuals. It is a systemic problem.
- We know that wealth begets wealth.
- We know that discriminatory laws, policies, and practice have primarily supported cisgendered white male companies and sustained their opportunity of compounded generational wealth.
#CONSEQUENCE
As a result, America is losing out on over 1.1 million businesses created by people of color, and as a result, foregoing over 9 million potential jobs and $300 billion in collective national income.
#OPPORTUNITY
We also know that a growing mass of individuals across race, ethnicities, class, sex, gender, age, and national origins, in addition to governmental agencies, philanthropic institutions, and corporations are committed to eliminating this gap.
