Gini Index by State

(2007-2009)

Note: The Gini coefficient is a measure of income inequality. A zero coefficient implies that all households in a state have exactly the same amount of wealth, while a coefficient of 1.0 means a single household has all the state's income.

Once considered a land of

  • pportunity, California is now one of

the most unequal states in the U.S.

A TIDE IS TURNING: EQUITY AND GROWTH

Conventional wisdom in economics says there is a trade-off between equity and efficiency. But, new evidence shows that regions that work toward equity have stronger and more resilient economic growth—for everyone.

Even the Federal Reserve Bank

  • f Cleveland found that that

racial inclusion and income equality matter for growth.

THE GOOD NEWS: EQUITY AND GROWTH

We found this in

  • ur research, too.
slide-32
SLIDE 32

 Underinvestment in

each other makes us less competitive as a nation

  • Social tensions over who will

gain and who will lose make us less likely to cohere on what we need to do to thrive

IT’S A BROADER STORY

AND WHY SO IMPORTANT NOW?

In November 2012, Proposition 30 passes— directing funding toward schools—a product of multi-year community

  • rganizing which also

showed that movement mattered more than money.

A TIDE IS TURNING . . .

slide-35
SLIDE 35

In October 2013, after years of strategic organizing by

  • rganizing groups, California

passed the Trust Act— protecting those arrested for misdemeanors against deportation—and approved drivers’ licenses for undocumented Californians.

A TIDE IS TURNING . . .

slide-36
SLIDE 36

In November 2014, a statewide, cross-sector coalition pushed nearly 60% of voters to pass Proposition 47—reducing nonviolent crimes from felonies to a misdemeanors and so helping shutdown the school-to-prison pipeline.

Ensuring that California’s moment

  • f change becomes a sustained

movement for equity requires attention and investment in our state’s “organizing infrastructure” — that is, the ecosystem of social movements working to improve conditions for communities by changing systems of power.

BUT WILL MOMENT BECOME MOVEMENT?

  • And this comes not simply

through good ideas but by mobilizing constituencies

  • To invest for the future, we need

to understand revenues as much as we understand spending

  • So it’s a challenge: we must be making

not just the moral case but the business case for equity in education & beyond LEADING FORWARD

slide-39
SLIDE 39
  • Stress that equity and inclusion

are fundamental not add-on’s

  • Push folks to understand the key

role of education as one part of a larger opportunity system

  • Link up with other efforts to

promote a more inclusive and prosperous California IMPLICATIONS FOR LEADERSHIP
