John,
Thank you for joining Prosperity Now — I’m glad to have you with us.
The United States has long claimed to be the land of opportunity. But the reality is that opportunity depends greatly on your race, zip code, level of education, and wealth. Consider that the typical White American family has roughly 10 times as much wealth as typical Black and Latine families.
It’s taken centuries for this staggering inequality to grow. Our system has long been broken, and we need things to change now. But economic injustice won’t be fixed overnight — and that’s why we need committed supporters to join us for the long haul and help do the hard work necessary to fix it.
As part of Prosperity Now’s community, you will receive important updates, ways to contact your elected officials about crucial issues, and opportunities to make an outsized impact with donations of any amount that support our work around the country.
We look forward to you taking action with us. Because the truth is that our system isn’t working for everyone — in fact, it wasn’t designed to. And, as communities throughout the United States continue to contend with the on-going economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, and more, those who were already struggling risk falling even further behind.
I know it. You know it too. But it’s not enough to know — we must act, individually and as part of a community that pushes as much as it takes to ensure our economic system works for everyone, including historically marginalized people.
Thank you again for joining us for the long haul and thank you for being part of this fight.
