The Minnesota Legislature appears ready to pass a significant increase in early-learning scholarships with rare bipartisan support on behalf of needy Minnesota families whose kids aren t ready for kindergarten.
However, with only days to go in the session, it s unclear how big a bill will squeeze through the House and Senate and to the desk of Gov. Tim Walz.
The kids have important allies, ranging from the Minnesota Business Partnership of the state s 100 largest firms to the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, the Itasca Project, the Children s Defense Fund, the newly formed Minnesota Business Coalition for Racial Equity and Close Gaps by 5, the early-education lobby. ....

A welcome initiative coming together in the wake of the George Floyd killing has the power to reshape the fortunes of Black Minnesotans to the benefit of all.
For now it s called the Alliance of Alliances, and it will be operated through the African American Leadership Forum. But behind that anodyne name lie some of the most powerful forces in the community, merging time and talent to develop long-range plans to bring racial equity to a state sorely in need.
What sets this effort apart is that it is being developed by Black leaders in business, community and social organizations. It is emerging from the Black community, rather than being developed for it by external forces. This is bringing Black leaders together on issues important to us, said Duchesne Drew, president of Minnesota Public Radio and a member of Omicron Boulé, a top Black fraternal organization that was among the driving forces in creating the alliance. ....

Racism exists in all aspects of life, greatly affecting our overall economy and well-being as a state.
According to the Alana Community Brain Trust, the opportunity cost of racism in Minnesota, via loss of income, lack of homeownership, tax burdens and business losses, is estimated to be $287 billion.
As a state, we have grown familiar with commonly cited disparities, maybe even comfortable. But on May 25, 2020, we saw what we can never unsee the stark reality of the systemic injustice that plagues Black Minnesotans daily. ....

To accelerate progress, today the company has announced the Black Farmer Equity Initiative, in partnership with two U.S. organizations, t ....
