The Paradox of Debt: Addressing the Wealth Gap in the Black Community
Mo Rushy discusses “The Paradox of Debt,” a book that looks at why the racial wealth gap is getting wider.
Rushy talks about how historical unfairness, like redlining and discrimination, has left Black and Brown communities with less wealth than White communities.
Even as these communities grow, they’re still behind because they’re starting from a place of disadvantage. Rushy says that without policies and movements to fix these past wrongs, the gap will keep getting bigger.
