"#BabyBonds are one of several strategies that can help young people from low-income and low-wealth families access 'start-up capital for life.'" @ACGinDC & Michael Bonino-Britsch of JPMorgan Chase PolicyCenter on why baby bonds, and why now. #BabyBlogs racepowerpolicy.org/2023/11/why-ba…

🚨🚨🚨Columbia research: "The monthly child poverty rate increased from 12.1 percent in December 2021 to 17 percent in January 2022" Biden Child Tax Credit expired at end of last year 3.7 million kids reenter poverty povertycenter.columbia.edu/news-internal/…
Working on a paper, I find myself once again staring at the credit denial rates by race and family income, and that the black-white difference *increases* with income. Nearly 1 in 4 (23%) Black adults in families with income above $100,000 were denied credit over a year.
We know that deprivation in childhood can have severe developmental consequences. Now we’re learning about how economic supports for families may contribute to improved cognitive development. nytimes.com/2022/01/24/us/…

We need to change the narrative on poverty and expose the moral failings of society that allow poverty and hunger to exist in our land of abundance. Through policy we can end poverty. Great discussion at #HLA21 @HungerCenter

”’Your mom is on food stamps’ works as a taunt because it means she & you are poor. ’Your mom gets a monthly child benefit check’ doesn’t work as a taunt because it just means she has a kid & because the taunter’s mom also gets one” peoplespolicyproject.org/2021/07/19/two…
👏👏@amprog’s @areeba_haidr & @GgrHendricks today in @thehill: This year's expanded #ChildTaxCredit is a game-changer (first checks are out today!). Making it permanent would ensure tens of millions of children never know poverty in the first place. thehill.com/opinion/financ…

As we celebrate #Juneteenth being recognized as a federal holiday this year (an important cultural shift!), I’m thinking of all the Black folks who won’t have the day off because they’re working low-wage jobs with no paid leave.

I just want to let you know I’m taking a social media break. My dear sweet cat, Shelly Boo, passed away. He was 13.5. I had him for 12 yrs. They say the 1st stage of grief is denial + I was distracting myself but it’s hit me like a ton of bricks that my baby is gone. I’m gutted
So today is my last day at CAP. In a couple weeks I start with the Teamsters doing research to help units in bargaining. I’ll be sad to go, especially to leave @UnionAtCAP, without which I never would’ve gotten this amazing new job or had such an incredible community of coworkers
I think this was my son's way of wishing me happy birthday today, but he rushed to me early this morning to say, "Papa, did you know today is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty?!". #EndPoverty
wage theft vs other forms of theft in US
News: after months of calls & crawls through US bars & restaurants, my report for The Times finds, even now, in a historic robust labor market, wage theft, exploitation & lagging real wages related to the subminimum system for tipped workers is rampant..1/ nytimes.com/2022/10/13/bus…
I wonder what happens when you give people money? @mayorsforagi fatherly.com/news/guarantee…
We accept that there are bad jobs & good jobs because we're conditioned to believe that there is a subset of people that don't deserve good jobs. That conditioning is based on race & gender, leaving Black & brown women at the wayside. What if there were no bad jobs?
"I wish I could get [X] data from [Y Federal Agency] broken down by [race/ ethnicity/ sexual orientation / gender/ disability status/ veteran status/ small area geography/ etc] so I can [Z]" Have you ever had that thought? If so, please tell us about it: whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upda…
Today, I taught my first two classes as an Assistant Professor of African American Studies at Georgetown University. My community introduced me to Black Study, and I am grateful to continue. LOVE for my old and new village who raised this PhD and nurtured ALL that I am. 💜
In light of today’s #studentloanforgiveness news, I am thinking about @DarrickHamilton and the many Black economists and academics who have - for nearly 20 years - made the case and connected student loan debt to wealth inequity and racial and economic justice in the U.S. 1/x
☀️Good morning, New Hampshire! Another great day at @CSG_East; ran into my former colleague @TarynsTake who is here discussing how we can use federal investments in order to build a stronger, inclusive, future workforce. 💪🏽#CSGEast #GoodJobs
🛑 Stop calling middle income housing “workforce housing.” It’s described as housing for teachers, firefighters, police – predominately white professions - & often is a euphemism for apartments for white people. Also - people w/the lowest incomes work!
2 months ago I was released after serving 10 years in California's prison system. I was given $200 and a "good luck". $200 dollars was breakfast & gas money for the 2 hour drive home. This is the desperate situation we leave thousands of ppl reentering our society. Unacceptable.
The end of “Sing 2”?????????? Baby, this is CINEMA.
