From Center for Community Economic Development: On June 16, 2009 The Closing the Racial Wealth Gap Initiative and  The Media Consortium hosted a webinar for members of the media on closing the racial wealth gap. Experts of color discussed how Native American, Black, and Latino communities have been affected by predatory lending and foreclosures, and urged journalists to investigate the racial angle of the economic crisis to raise awareness of the issues and encourage policy changes that will close the racial wealth gap.
Okay, so, I participated in the webinar and am working on a report of sorts and hope to publish soon, if not later  today then in the coming days.
