Inequality.org
Inequality.org is the premiere portal for facts and analysis on the harmful impacts of – and bold solutions to – the problem of rising wealth and income inequality.
Through the site and our related weekly newsletter, we also highlight the stories and campaigns of activists on the front lines of fights to reverse extreme inequality in the United States and around the world.
The “Facts” section of Inequality.org features some of the world’s most widely viewed interactive charts on a wide range of inequality-related topics. These include charts on income, wealth, global, racial, and gender inequalities, as well as charts on the intersection of inequality and health, taxes, philanthropy, the care economy, and the Covid pandemic.
