Welcome to the new season of State of Our Workforce! This year, our conversations will center on the Anthropology of Work. (Check out our mini-episode to learn more.) In recognizing Black History Month, we are joined by Dr. Angela Jackson, founder of Future Forward, and Dr. Rachel Watkins, professor of anthropology at American University, for a conversation about the history of research and the way it influences us now, with a specific look at its impact in the field of workforce development and how that has affected workers, especially Black workers.Follow the National Fund on LinkedIn to watch live recordings of State of Our Workforce every month.
