The student debt crisis is a racial and economic justice issue: Demand President Biden cancel all student debt

With a stroke of a pen, President Biden can cancel all student debt.

The student debt crisis is a racial and economic justice issue. It’s time for President Biden to take these issues seriously, and take a major step in closing the racial wealth gap.

Right now, one white family has roughly 10 times the amount of wealth as a Black family, while white college graduates have over 7 times more wealth than Black college graduates. All the while, Black people hold a disproportionate amount of student debt -- disproportionately reinforcing and widening the racial wealth gap.
