Action Center on Race and the Economy Institute

The Action Center on Race and the Economy (ACRE) and ACRE Institute drive campaigns that seek to create a more racially and economically just society that values people over profit and supports the full inclusion and leadership of Black, brown, and poor people in our democracy and economy. Through partnerships with organizations involved in local racial, economic, environmental, and educational justice campaigns, we provide strategic campaign coordination and campaign infrastructure with an explicit racial justice analysis. ACRE and ACRE Institute staff and sponsor the Bargaining for the Common Good (BCG) network.

The Action Center on Race & the Economy Institute (ACREI) is a 501(c)(3) organization formed in 2017 that drives campaigns that fight for structural change. We directly take on the financial institutions and that are responsible for pillaging communities of color and poor families, and destroying our environment.

We support racial, economic, and environmental justice organizations with strategic planning and advocacy coordination. We also lead campaigns that spotlight corporate and financial profiteers as they erode the basic racial and economic rights of communities of color.
