Ant Blair on Active Change: Combating Racism with Economic Power
Manage episode 408125095 series 3557108
Welcome to "Money & Racism," hosted by Joe Burns. In this episode, we're joined by special guest Ant Blair to unpack the tangled relationship between wealth and racial inequality. From a discussion on the Flint water crisis to the decline of generational prosperity, Ant brings personal insights into systemic racism and the urgent need for action.
We'll explore how past movements like the civil rights struggle were fueled by financial support and why current protests, sparked by incidents like the death of George Floyd, need more momentum to enact real change. Ant emphasizes the importance of unified efforts and each individual's role in addressing these systemic issues.
The conversation delves into generational wealth disparities, the evolving job market, and how industries fail to reflect diversity despite their success. Join us as we confront the financial roots of racial disparities and the collective actions necessary to foster change.
Prepare for an enlightening discussion that calls for reflection and proactive steps toward a just society. Let's get started on this episode of "Money & Racism."
