Racial inequality isn’t a one percenter problem if your child was Killed by the police. Pollution isn’t a one percenter problem if your kids all have asthma from inhaling coal fumes or have been drinking water with lead. I could go on.

These problems sound like they have nothing to do with wealthy people standing up for one cause or another. The issue is that the wealth is so often created or amplified by greedily outsourcing these problems to the powerless. The wealth begets more power, and institutions that launder the story of that wealth into a whitewashed canvas of do goodery.
