Purpose
Since 1997, the Roundtable has been focusing on how the problems associated with race
and racism in America affect initiatives aimed at poverty reduction in distressed urban
neighborhoods. The Roundtable has explored how race shapes the social, political,
economic, and cultural institutions of our society, and how those dynamics produce
significant and ongoing racial disparities in the well-being of children, families, and
communities. The work also has an applied dimension that describes how to incorporate
racial equity into social and economic development work.
