We will be sharing the official release of the new “Color of Wealth in Los Angeles” special report, a joint publication of Duke University, The New School, UCLA, and the Insight Center for Community Economic Development, and presented by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The Color of Wealth in Los Angeles report utilizes new data from the National Asset Scorecard and Communities of Color (NASCC) Survey to better understand the economic well-being of people of color in several cities in the United States. The findings in this report reveal major disparities in wealth accumulation across certain racial and ethnic groups and features estimates for U.S. born blacks, blacks who are recent immigrants from Africa, Mexicans, other Latinos, Asian Indians, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese in the Los Angeles Metropolitan Statistical Area. Come hear high-level findings from the authors of the report, as well as reflections from local leaders and opportunities for building wealth among communities of color in Los Angeles. Printed copies of the report will also be made available at the event.
