While the longest shutdown in U.S. history leaves millions missing paychecks, it's clear we must build wealth for all, especially for communities that have historically been kept from opportunities. Wealth isn’t about luxury, it’s about survival: demos.nyc/3XjTNlq

Brandon McKoy, President of The Fund for New Jersey, believes that the strength of our democracy—and our nation—depends on the full inclusion of our multiracial society. Hear from our newest Dēmos ambassador about the importance of our work in shaping a more inclusive future.
