A new episode of Sanford’s Policy 360 podcast takes a deep dive into one of the key issues shaping the 2024 election: racial wealth inequality and its influence on social policy.
William A. Darity Jr., the Samuel DuBois Cook Distinguished Professor and Cook Center Founding Director, joins the discussion with interim Dean Manoj Mohanan from the Sanford School of Public Policy.
Together, they unpack Darity’s extensive research on the racial wealth gap, tracing its historical foundations and considering various policy solutions, such as reparations and baby bonds. The conversation sheds light on how these proposals could tackle long-standing economic disparities between Black and white families.
This episode is part of the ongoing series focused on critical policy issues leading up to the 2024 election.
