Wealth inequality stops
with our generation.

At RG, we envision a world in which safety is in relationships and community, not private wealth. We know we are powerful enough together — joining in solidarity with poor and working-class communities — to make this a reality. Getting real about our class backgrounds is a critical part of supporting poor and working-class led economic and racial justice movements.

You definitely have some class privilege!

Those of us with some class privilege going on tend to downplay it and even hide our family’s wealth in progressive spaces, not knowing or feeling comfortable squaring our politics with our family’s class background.

Our silence or misrepresentations actually empowers racial capitalism which thrives off the myth that anyone can escape poverty if they ‘just work hard enough.’

But what if telling the truth about wealth and our class backgrounds actually helped expose how deeply unjust and racist the U.S. economic system is? What if it made our movements for economic and racial justice stronger? (Spoiler alert: it does)
