Overview
The racial wealth gap in our country is staggering, with typical white families holding ten times the net wealth of typical Black families. How do we overcome the legacy of economic racism that began with slavery and continues to this day?
In honor of Juneteenth—the holiday that celebrates the emancipation of those enslaved in the United States—NJPAC invites you to our next PSEG True Diversity Film Series panel. We’ll discuss ways to enhance the economic vitality of Black communities on multiple fronts, including job creation, financial literacy, wealth building, financial inclusion and economic integration.
