The Great Wealth Divide

On the fourth episode of The Great Wealth Divide, Gabriela Tejedor and Miguel Martinez-Saenz join host Dale Favors to talk about the crucial role that education plays in financial inequality — and how to address the problem.

Episode 3 of The Great Wealth Divide puts the focus on housing disparities for Black and Latinx communities, including the history of destructive government and real estate industry practices, such as redlining and disinvestment, that negatively affected access to affordable housing and home ownership.

On the second episode of The Great Wealth Divide, we discuss how inadequate access to investment capital, financial education, mentorship, banking, and credit have all contributed to creating a significant disadvantage for Black and Latinx families.

The Great Wealth Divide, from WBGO Studios, is focused on solutions to the systemic racism which has created the extreme wealth divide between Black and Latinx communities and their white counterparts. We’ll be discussing these issues with thought leaders who are stakeholders engaged in the work to build racial economic equity and wealth in order to create better outcomes for Black and Latinx families.
