Racial Justice
Structural racism heavily impacts our communities, our state and our nation. In order to transform Illinois into a state that affirms the value of our neighbors of color, we must address the five central types of violence waged against black, brown and indigenous Americans: physical, political, legal, economic and environmental.
Whether it is a broken criminal justice system, or massive disparities in the availability of financial services, or health disparities, or environmental disparities, or educational disparities, our job is to—and we will—create an Illinois in which all people are treated equally.
