Book Abstract for The Whiteness of Wealth

Taxes, which are supposedly universal and neutral, are designed in such a way that it favors citizens based on skin color. Dorothy Brown spent decades of her life proving that the United States tax code is not colorblind. Many of its policies are optimized for White wealth at the expense of Black Americans. In The Whiteness of Wealth, Brown explores the tax subsidies for marriage, homeownership, retirement accounts, student loans, and inheritances to support her arguments.
