We’ve seen many visual charts and graphs describing the huge gaps in economic inequality. Have you ever wondered what the wealth gap *sounds* like? Check out this video by Phyllis Labanowski. The Sound of Wealth explores the distribution of wealth in the United States. Incomprehensibly large data is made accessible through sound.

Class Action inspires action to end classism and extreme inequality by providing tools, training and inspiration to raise awareness, understand the relationship of class and race, shift cultural beliefs about social class, build cross-class solidarity and transform institutions and systems.
