The Economics and Politics of Race | OLD PARKLAND CONFERENCE

Is “systematic racism” to blame for the income inequality between black and white Americans today? And is a larger welfare state or additional wealth-redistribution efforts—such as slavery reparations—the best way to narrow racial gaps? If racial bias doesn’t explain these outcomes, what does?
