On this edition of Your Call, we’ll discuss a recent report from the Institute for Policy Studies and the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, Still a Dream: 500 years to Black Economic Equality. Sixty years after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, Black Americans are still facing a harsh reality of economic inequality and persisting disparities. Without significant changes, it could take African Americans over 500 more years to achieve economic parity with White Americans. The report proposes a range of solutions to narrow the racial economic divide, including a universal jobs guarantee, a massive land and homeownership program, a commitment to individual asset building, policies to the concentration of wealth and power, and targeted reparations.
