The Reversing Runaway Inequality workshop will be a highly-interactive facilitated conversation during which participants will develop a deep understanding of the ways that wealth has been concentrated into the hands of the very few. The economy has been rigged in every way imaginable. Inequality is getting worse because it is built into the heart of our economic system, and it's always worse for people of color because of structural and institutional racism. In reality, every social problem that we need to fix, from education to criminal justice to immigration to housing to climate change, is made worse by Wall Street and the super rich. But to fight back, we need to understand exactly how our economy got this way. The only way we can win on all of our issues and put a stop to runaway inequality is with a mass social movement that eliminates this massive concentration of wealth and brings economic power back to the people.
