Episode 51 - Darren Walker
from Black Market Reads Hosted by The Givens Foundation for African American Literature/iDream.tv
In this episode, Ford Foundation President Darren Walker discusses his new book From Generosity to Justice: A New Gospel of Wealth, in which he grapples with the paternalistic roots of American philanthropy and envisions a new approach that seeks to address the causes of inequity, rather than the consequences. He discusses the current state of extreme wealth inequality in America and how this inequality is both the result of systemic racism and a contributor to racial disparities. We spoke with Mr. Walker via Zoom. You can find more information about how to access the book for free on the Ford Foundation website.
