Recognizing injustice

#ESJAY

Featuring co-founder Jay Lipman

August 28, 2020

So much of what’s going on in the world today is connected to our portfolios—whether that’s COVID-19, racial inequality, or climate change. Lately, we’ve been thinking about how all of these issues share a common theme: injustice.

How can we learn to recognize injustice? As sustainable investors, are we responsible for knowing which companies are exacerbating and even profiting from these injustices? We'd love to know what you think.
