The 2020 Census faced a daunting set of challenges. The Census Bureau faced budget constraints like never before, and the data collection was rolled out online for the first time due to the COVID-19 pandemic, scaling back door‐to‐door outreach and canvassing.
Today, the Supreme Court of the United States blocked, for now, the citizenship question from being added to the 2020 Census.
Over the next 20 years in the U.S., $35–70 trillion in wealth will transfer from one generation to another in the largest generational wealth transfer in history, mostly moving within wealthy white families. The policies that make possible this protection and accumulation of wealth are situated within the legacy of land theft, genocide of Native people, enslavement of Black people, and exploitation of natural resources. This context of racial capitalism has also given rise to wealth accumulation that, in part, birthed the philanthropic sector. Paradoxically, many of us working within philanthropy aim to contribute to changes in systems, structures, and outcomes that address the harms of interconnected systems like racial capitalism that favor some at the expense of others and the planet.
