Dr. William A. Darity Jr., the Samuel DuBois Cook Distinguished Professor and Founding Director of the Cook Center at Duke University, and Dr. Thomas Cramer were interviewed by Dr. James Peterson on their recent edited publication in Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences special issue on Black Reparations.

The positive is that there has been a change in attitudes across the American population that holds some promise for the full development of a political movement that would pressure Congress into doing the right thing.”
