Realizing a Multiracial Democracy for All

Imagine a nation that values the humanity of everyone living in it. One where all people can participate, thrive, and shape their own futures.

This flourishing multiracial democracy in the United States is ours to create.

The Founding Fathers of the United States did not include the whole of our country when they penned the words “We, the People.” It is the people of this multiracial nation—families, neighbors, and communities—who have believed in more and driven us closer to the promise of democracy.

This series, sponsored by PolicyLink and written by PolicyLink and its partners, explores how each of us can carry forward the work of generations before us to realize a flourishing nation designed for all of its people. This reality is within reach and will require a radical reimagination of our governing structures, institutions, economy, and very ways of being—all necessary for a new foundation where everyone can thrive.

A flourishing multiracial democracy will be ours to experience—so long as we the people make it real.

We, the people.
We, the institutions.
We, the nation. 
We have the power.
