Racial Equity “…is the condition that would be achieved if one’s racial identity no longer predicted, in a statistical sense, how one fares.”
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, children and youth of color will comprise the demographic majority in our nation by 2018, and, overall, people of color will surpass 50% of the U.S. population by 2043. Our nation’s economic survival will depend upon the inclusion of people of color in all sectors of the economy and in all segments of the workforce. We must work together to eliminate the race-based policies, stereotyping, and negative cultural messaging that have truncated the prospects of so many deserving American citizens.
