• Inequality is deeply rooted in the foundation of the City of
Jackson.
• The harm created has affected generation after generation.
• The health, income, and mobility of our communities of
color have been influenced by decisions made in the past.
• The trauma is visible.
• We see it in the blight, generational poverty, disinvestment,
and violence.
• We see it in our housing and educational quality.
• We see entire neighborhoods have been excluded from
accessing capital.
