About Progress 2050

Progress 2050 is a project of the Center for American Progress that develops new ideas for an increasingly diverse America. The United States will become a nation with no clear racial or ethnic majority by the year 2050. This expected transition provides the progressive movement with an exciting opportunity to help America live up to its ideals of equality and justice for all.

Progress 2050 recognizes that diversity can be our nation's greatest competitive advantage and seeks to build a progressive agenda that is more inclusive and reflects our country’s rich racial and ethnic makeup. We do this by promoting innovative policy ideas, facilitating honest dialogue about the intersection of race and policy, analyzing demographics, and developing new leaders.
