Equity Matters: Advancing Racial Justice and Strengthening Our Multiracial Democracy

Equity Matters is a virtual discussion series from the Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP) that brings together policy leaders, advocates, scholars, and community organizers to confront the pressing challenges facing equity and democracy today. Each session explores the intersections of poverty, race, and justice—illuminating both the threats we face and the pathways toward a more inclusive and equitable future.

About the Series

At a time when efforts to advance equity are being misrepresented, politicized, and rolled back, Equity Matters offers space for dialogue, connection, and collective action. Through these conversations, CLASP and our partners aim to deepen understanding, elevate evidence-based solutions, and strengthen cross-sector collaboration that drives lasting change.

Join the Conversation

CLASP invites all who believe in a fairer, more inclusive America to join us for future sessions of Equity Matters. Together, we can strengthen democratic values, dismantle systemic racism, and advance policies that uplift all communities.
