BLACK WOMEN IN GEORGIA WILL RECEIVE $850 PER MONTH TO COMBAT THE RACIAL WEALTH GAP
As reported on Yahoo, the Georgia Resilience and Opportunity Fund will focus solely on helping Black women combat the wealth gap. The fund will provide 650 Black women across Georgia payments of $850 per month over the next two years. The initiative is one of the biggest guaranteed income initiatives in the country. Some women will receive payments monthly, while others will get a lump sum.
ABC News reports, in addition, the “Real Wakanda” Initiative will run its basic income program that will help 300 residents in poverty. It’ll pay residents $500 for 12 months. The publication notes,
“Some 38% of Black women and 26% of Black men in the city are living in poverty, compared to 8% of white women and 5% of white men in the same city.”

"Our community members are incredibly resilient and resourceful, but many are grappling with deep and long-standing inequities that leave families with thin financial buffers. Black women are among the most likely groups to experience cash shortfalls that make covering basic needs difficult," Hope Wollensack, executive director of the GRO Fund, said in a press release.
"This isn't the result of poor choices; it's the result of pervasive economic insecurity that has the sharpest impacts on women and communities of color and the people who live at the intersection of the two."
Wollensack added, "Guaranteed income is a step toward creating a more just and equitable economy - when we center Black women in this work, our communities thrive."

Date: January 18th, 2022 10:59 PM Author: deranged box office I'm actually not terribly opposed to this so long as the justification made for it isn't some bullshit "systemic racism" argument. If libs just admitted that some groups of people aren't as capable as others on the whole--and that we should be paternalistic about it and help them--I could see myself getting on board with that. Instead, libs just call me racist, say I have privilege, and attribute all black ills to undefinable "white oppression." Nope. Not supporting that. Ever.

Date: January 18th, 2022 11:08 PM Author: deranged box office I have no doubt that's the prevailing motivation for race-based projects like this. Libs believe inequity in outcome between white and black--in this case income--is virtually always per se evidence of "systemic racism" or some other undefinable, white-based discriminatory policy. That's the beginning and end of the analysis for libs. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5010784&forum_id=2#43807058) |

Date: January 18th, 2022 10:59 PM Author: Fishy tanning salon Black residents in Atlanta are four times as likely to be living under the federal poverty line than their white neighbors, with 46% of Black households earning below $25,000 a year, according to recent research by the Old Fourth Ward Economic Security Task Force.
Some 38% of Black women and 26% of Black men in the city are living in poverty, compared to 8% of white women and 5% of white men in the same city, the task force reports.
“We’re working, we’re tired, we’re stressed,” Lockhart said. “With an extra $850 a month, people will be able to enjoy the sunlight and will be able to spend more time with their babies.”
