In this webinar by CountyHealthRankings, experts explore the enduring racial wealth divide in the United States, particularly affecting Black Americans who hold just 10% of the wealth compared to their white counterparts. The discussion covers the origins and persistence of this divide, along with the ineffectiveness of traditional wealth-building avenues in narrowing it.

Featuring Michael Stevenson from County Health Rankings & Roadmaps and Miriam Axel-Lute from Shelterforce, this webinar is part one of the series “Unjust and Unfair: Health Consequences of the Racial Wealth Divide,” with part two scheduled to stream live on June 14, 2022.
