SYSTEMIC EQUALITY IS A RACIAL JUSTICE AGENDA
Since our nation’s founding, discriminatory policies and laws have created systemic inequities and barriers that keep people — particularly people of color — from accessing the mainstays of economic life, including education, employment, and homeownership, resulting in racial disparities in wealth and income.
These disparities result from a combination of ongoing discrimination, structural inequality, and biases across our institutions, and they emerge in new forms of technology that influence nearly every facet of life.
Through litigation and advocacy, we aim to remedy deeply entrenched sources of inequality and ensure that access to opportunity and the ability to build wealth is available to all.
All people should have an equal opportunity to earn a living, find a home, and get an education. When we have full and equal access to banking, housing, voting rights, and more, better futures are possible.
