The numbers are clear. In state after state, our nation’s Black population still struggles to achieve the same social, economic and educational successes shared by so many Americans. Wisconsin is no better. In fact, it is often worse. Just a small portion of our state’s population, Blacks still manage to lead their fellow citizens — in poverty and in imprisonment, in teenage pregnancies, in poor educations and even poorer healthcare.
The statistics are staggering. But they are not insurmountable.
At the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute, we believe things can change for the better. We can improve our cities, schools and neighborhoods. We can change the entire community — for Blacks, for Wisconsin, for everyone. We can start today.
