The racial real estate ownership gap precedes the racial wealth gap, argue Lyneir Richardson, @lohplaces & @andreperryedu. @BrookingsInst analysis shows only 3% of Black households own nonresidential commercial real estate, compared to 8% of white ones. https://t.co/YBkpmw6Taz

This should be a๐จfor all policy makers. We are choosing to have children grow up in #poverty instead of investing in their families. This is a policy choice - a terrible policy choice - that will have long term consequences.
Wow. This is such a tragic chart. **Child poverty in the United States more than doubled in 2022** 2022 child poverty rate: 12.4% 2021 child poverty rate: 5.2% (a historic low) This did not have to happen. It's largely due to ending the enhanced Child Tax Credit.

Creating Belonging in an organization is far easier when leadership is on board. Listen to this #webelonghere episode to hear how @cityoftacoma Mayor Victoria Woodards exemplifies this throughout her work, background, and her hope for the City of Destiny.
