This Black History Month, we’re celebrating hundreds of years of Black history -- and acknowledging the past and present of an economy and a tax code that has been rigged disproportionately against Black communities.
After hundreds of years of Black American struggle, activism, and achievement:
  • On average, Black workers’ wages are still only 75% of their white counterparts
  • White households headed by high school dropouts attain more wealth than Black households led by college graduates
  • Of the nearly $275 billion in tax breaks provided to individuals by the GOP Tax Scam last year, about 80% of the benefits went to white households
