Let’s Change the Conversation
- 1/10 of Hispanics over age 25 (11%) have earned a bachelor’s degree or higher
- More than 1/3 of minority women (35%) are less likely to receive a job referral than white men
- Minorities are more likely to experience multidimensional poverty than their white counterparts
It’s time we become comfortable with the uncomfortable conversations with race. Instead of being color blind we need to be color brave.
