Mission

The Mission of Inequality-opoly is to spread awareness and advance discourse about how racism and sexism effect the accumulation and sustaining of wealth in America.

Overview

Inequality-opoly: The Board Game of Structural Racism and Sexism in America is an educational experience that transforms recent national studies into an engaging and personalized perspective-taking experience.

Inequality-opoly was made to transform boring diversity and inclusion trainings into an engaging, personalized, and educational experience that unfolds over time. Unlike most diversity trainings, many Inequality-opoly participants purchase the game to play at home with their families and friends. Since this game is based on a classic American property trading game, there is not a steep learning curve to pick up this game.

Gameplay

There are eight perceived identities in Inequality-opoly: Asian Man, Black Man, Latinx/Hispanic Man, White Man, Asian Woman, Black Woman, Latinx/Hispanic Woman, White Woman. As the players travel around the board they encounter and learn about the following issues:

• Racial and Gender Pay Gap

• Prison Industrial Complex

• Mortgage Approval/Denial

• Entrepreneurship

• Health Insurance

• Intimate Partner Violence

• Natural Disasters

• Student Loan Debt

• Inheritance

• Sexual Orientation Discrimination

• Mental Health

• Voting Disenfranchisement

• (Re)Employment

Learning Outcomes:

-Participants will understand the structural obstacles to building wealth as a woman and/or person of color

-Participants will become more financially literate by learning about investments, inheritance, mortgage, and assets.

-Participants will learn how structural racism and sexism intersect
