Thank you also to our incredible contributors, including: Mehrsa Baradaran Jesse Van Tol ([email protected]) Donna Gambrell Prosperity Now @wspriggs Bill Bynum Mississippi Center for Justice James E. Clyburn Your insight was vital to shining a light on the roots of inequality in the banking system - and how to fix it.

William E. Spriggs A huge loss. He brought just an extra ray of light into every room.

.Rep. Barbara Lee (Archived) Judy Chu Nanette D. Barragán Congresswoman Sara Jacobs lead #TriCaucus letter urging a clean #DebtCeiling bill and #NoCuts to life-saving programs. The evidence base proves such cuts are failed, punitive, and reinforce racial discrimination - they just be rejected!
