Race and the Wealth Gap in America with Angela Hanks and Christian Weller

A new report by the Center for American Progress (CAP) looks at structural racism pervasive in U.S. history responsible for the growing racial wealth gap in America, and proposes how to fight it by helping families build savings, reduce debt, and have equitable access to education and employment. Host Dan Loney speaks to two of the authors of that report, Angela Hanks, Director of Workforce Development Policy at CAP, and Christian Weller, CAP Senior Fellow for Economics, to discuss the targeted policies needed to close this gap on Knowledge@Wharton.
