Valuing Work by Women of Color
_on ECONOMIC UPDATE with Richard D. Wolff
On this week’s show, Prof. Wolff discusses Bernie Madoff’s $ 82 billion swindles and capitalism’s incentives for swindling, the economics of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, US government’s racist housing policies, and refuting the defense of capitalism as “lifting people out of poverty.” On the second half of the show, Wolff is joined by Professor Nina Banks to talk about economics and correcting the undervaluing of community building work by women of color.
Each show wraps up with Professor Wolff answering some questions that he receives through his website or on Facebook. Economic Update is in partnership with Truthout.org.
This show was broadcast on May 17, 2021.
