How can policies like #babybonds and #guaranteedincome close the racial wealth gap? @DarrickHamilton and I explore this question in our latest op-ed for @TIME 🧵

I loved researching and writing more about the rise of baby bonds - or the inheritance guarantee - for my new book theguarantee.us
Learn more about how these transformative policies give us a unique opportunity to build an economy where ALL Americans can thrive. Full article here: time.com/6969794/racial…
There are baby bond programs in CA and CT and 100+ #guarantedincome pilots across the country. But @theGROfund is combining BOTH policies for the first time giving participants a $40K baby bond and $500/month. thegrofund.org/baby-bonds
New research from @GiveDirectly provides compelling evidence that combining lump-sum payments like baby bonds with monthly cash transfers is an effective tool in addressing entrenched generational poverty. givedirectly.org/2023-ubi-resul…
It's designed to provide children who do not have generational wealth a financial foundation to fund things like college, a down payment for a house, or startup capital for a small business.
A baby bond is essentially a guaranteed inheritance or a public fund paid out as a lump sum when the child reaches a certain age.
In America, the racial wealth gap is stark. For example, a white family in Atlanta has 46x as much wealth as a Black family—a gap that has remained the same since 1863.
How can policies like #babybonds and #guaranteedincome close the racial wealth gap? @DarrickHamilton and I explore this question in our latest op-ed for @TIME 🧵
The One Way America Can Meaningfully Address Poverty, by @nataliefoster @EconomicSecProj & @DarrickHamilton @TheNewSchool time.com/6969794/696979… via @TIME
UT Austin students chanting “You don’t scare us” even as countless militarized Texas Troopers swarm their campus, attack their protest, and bring in horses. This movement will not be stopped.
How are news outlets dedicating wall-to-wall coverage to campus protests, but not the discovery of mass graves in Gaza of people with their hands tied & clothing stripped? Why do we not know more? Where are the journalists and resources being dedicated to that story?
"Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes." --A new UN statement news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
If you are more angry about student anti-war protests at Columbia than the fact that last night Israel bombed southern Gaza, killing 22 people, including 18 children, then you are on the wrong side of history.
