Who We Are
Corporate-driven racial inequity and climate change not only threaten our social and environmental systems, but our financial systems as well. However, shareholders and impacted stakeholders have the power to reshape the economy for the public good.
Our campaigns expose problematic corporate governance and behavior, catalyze investor and public action, and confront the minority who make corporate abuses possible to defend the long-term financial, environmental and social interests of the majority.

Equity in the boardroom: 2024 Proxy Season
Equity in the Boardroom 2024 examines how the “Big Four” – BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard, and Fidelity (as well as Geode, Fidelity’s index fund manager) – voted on 70 shareholder proposals across five categories – freedom of association, workplace safety, racial and gender equity in the workplace, the future of work, and corporate political transparency – that are key to mitigating inequality-related risks and creating a fair and resilient economy rooted in broad-based, inclusive growth. The report also explores the divergence in proxy voting between the largest managers of U.S. defined benefit assets – BlackRock and State Street – and the largest U.S. public pensions, which are among their largest and most important clients.
