UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGE

Economic inequality is a moral issue, and a business issue.

Black and Latinx workers with bachelor's degrees earn 25% less than Asian and White workers from similar backgrounds.

The average white family has a net worth of $171K, compared to the average Black family at $17K.
