A Conversation About Racial Equality

As a firm, we’re committed to fighting against racism and discrimination. Here’s how we can get started.

Updated: March 2, 2021

Last year, civil unrest and nationwide protests sparked an ongoing conversation around the world about how we all can create a more equitable world for the Black community.

Mellody Hobson, Co-CEO of Ariel Investments and also a Board Director at the firm, sat down with Brian Lamb, Global Head of Diversity & Inclusion, to discuss their reactions to the current climate, the existing racial economic inequality and what we can do, as colleagues and as individuals, to foster inclusivity in our communities and workplaces. We all have a responsibility to tackle racial and economic injustice and it starts by engaging in honest and difficult conversations, so we can map out a path towards racial equality.

From conversation comes positive action, and JPMorgan Chase has now invested $200 million to grow minority-owned businesses with Ariel Investments. With this backing, new investment arm Ariel Alternatives is set to launch its first initiative, which will begin to close supply chain diversity gaps.

Mellody Hobson Quote We have these economic promises that we make to young people about getting an education. But it's not paying off in the end result. So what do we need to do? We need to make sure that we are looking at these income gaps in terms of pay. There's been a lot of work around gender pay equality. We need to make sure we have racial equality as well.
