Welcome to the thought-provoking series "Unequal by Design" hosted by Connie Morris. This debut episode, "Built This Way: The Blueprint of Inequality in America," dives deep into the intentional structures of inequality woven into the fabric of the United States.
Explore the historical roots of disparity, starting from foundational laws like the Naturalization Act of 1790 and the Constitution, which favored certain groups at the expense of others. Learn how systematic obstacles such as redlining in the 1930s perpetuated economic and educational inequalities, severely impacting Black and Brown communities. Delve into the real effects these policies have had on education and housing, revealing an ongoing cycle of exclusion.
Connie Morris doesn't just outline the problems; she offers a hopeful perspective on redesigning a fair system. From advocating for reparations to changing school funding structures, this episode equips listeners with knowledge and strategies for meaningful change.
