We always say that without wealth there can be no health. Here's an insightful article about one reason why the racial wealth gap continues to persist across generations. Via @NPRHealth @RWJF and @HarvardChanSPH npr.org/2022/08/13/111381492… #HealthEquity

Here's one reason why America's racial wealth gap persists across generations

A new poll finds white adults are more than twice as likely as others to get sizable financial help from parents or grandparents. By contrast, Black adults are more likely to give money to elders.
