By examining the rise of Black-owned banks and the challenges theyâve faced, Baradaran reveals how systemic racism, discriminatory policies, and financial inequality have kept wealth out of the hands of Black communities.

The Foreign ReportUkraineâs Nukes, Trumpâs Trade War, and Mehrsa Baradaran on NeoliberalismWe deep dive into Ukraineâs nuclear pastâhow it once held the worldâs third-largest nuclear arsenal and whether its 1994 decision to disarm was a historic mistake, given Russiaâs repeated betrayals. Then, we break down Trumpâs latest trade war moves, as new tariffs on Mexico and Canada spark retaliation and a potential escalation with China. Meanwhile, in Gaza, Israel has cut off critical humanitarian aid, pushing the region further into crisis.

Arash's World PodcastLaw Professor Mehrsa Baradaran on the Quiet Coup of Neoliberalism: Corruption, Corporate Greed, Distrust, and Dangerous IdeologiesIn this episode, I have the great pleasure of speaking with law professor Mehrsa Baradaran, the author of âThe Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of Americaâ on how neoliberalism was gradually and surreptitiously incorporated and implemented into law for economic and political purposes.
Mehrsa details that during the 1960s, there was a significant and pivotal global shift in terms of freedom and human and civil rights, international law, and the sovereignty of nations, and that is when neoliberalism gained its foothold not only in American policy but across the world.
This ideology made itself know...2024-05-2243 min
Make Me SmartNeoliberalismâs sleight of handOver the last 50 years, an ideology known as neoliberalism has transformed the American economy â for better or worse.

On the show today, Baradaran, author of the new book âThe Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of America,â explains what neoliberal ideology promised to do for the American economy, what it actually did and why she believes that looking to the free mar...2024-05-2236 min

In The Quiet Coup, and in conversation, Professor Baradaran (UC Irvine Law) traces how backlash to integrating schools led to the rise of neoliberal economic theory â which was essentially one giant excuse to maintain the status quo.

I SEE U116: Americaâs Legalized Corruption with Legal Scholar Mehrsa BaradaranCelebrated author of the award-winning book, The Color of Money: Black Banks and the Racial Wealth Gap, Mehrsa Baradaran states that when the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, Blacks had 0.5% of the nationâs wealth. This statistic makes sense, since Blacks werenât allowed to own capital as enslaved people â their bodies were, indeed, the capital used to develop lending in this country. Fast-forward more than 160 years to today, Black households currently have a total wealth of just over 4% - not much growth, especially when U consider that one-in-four Black households overall have no wealth or in debt, compared to about o...2024-04-2752 min

Money, Business and Books with tha homiesBook Review: The Color of Money by Mehrsa BaradaranThe Color of Money by Mehrsa Baradaran Review - "In 1863 black communities owned less than 1 percent of total U.S. wealth. Today that number has barely budged. Mehrsa Baradaran pursues this wealth gap by focusing on black banks. She challenges the myth that black banking is the solution to the racial wealth gap and argues that black communities can never accumulate wealth in a segregated economy."

Whether itâs the astronomical interest rates of a payday loan or the costs that come with being unbanked, the extractive practices of the financial services industry are effectively keeping the poor in poverty. Lawyer and author Mehrsa Baradaran and economic mobility expert Cate Blackford join Nick and Steph this week to explain why banking while poor is so expensive, and what states can do to rein in the people who profit from it. Mehrsa Baradaran is a professor of...2020-02-0457 min

The Gray Area with Sean IllingThe cognitive cost of poverty (with Sendhil Mullainathan)If youâre a Parks and Rec fan, youâll remember Ron Swansonâs Pyramid of Greatness. Right there at the base sits âCapitalism: Godâs way of determining who is smart and who is poor.âItâs a joke, but not really. Few want to justify the existence of poverty, but when they do, that's how they do it. People in poverty just arenât smart enough, or hard-working enough, or theyâre not making good enough decisions. Thereâs a moral void in that logic to begin with â but it also gets the reality largely backward. âThe poor do...2019-06-241h 39

Wharton Business DailyPhiladelphia Bans Cashless StoresPhiladelphia has become the first major U.S. city to ban âcashlessâ stores. The city is making this move, in part, to protect those "unbanked" consumers who may not have credit cards and only use cash. The law, which goes into effect on July 1st, exempts some businesses including parking structures, rentals requiring a security deposit, and those with a membership model. Amazon, for example, was informed they could work around the law, as long as membership is required. So are restrictions on cashless businesses ultimately good for consumers and for the municipalities and will other metropolitan areas follow Philly's lead?

FT AlphachatThe history of what we now call opportunity zonesThe 2017 tax cut in the US included a provision that would forgive capital gains taxes, if invested for ten years in an "opportunity zone" â a low-income area designated by a state governor. But the idea of encouraging investments in poor and mostly black areas has a long history. We talk to Mehrsa Baradaran, a law professor at the University of Georgia and Andrew Schrank, a sociologist at Brown University.

The Gray Area with Sean IllingPolitical power and the racial wealth gapThe racial wealth gap is where past injustice compounds into present inequality. When I asked Ta-Nehisi Coates, on this show, what would prove to him that white supremacy was over in this country, he pointed to the closing of the racial wealth gap. The numbers here are startling. In 2016, the median white family in America had $171,000 in wealth. The median black family had just $17,400. Put differently, for every dollar in wealth the average white family has, the average black family has a dime. And the chasm is growing.

According to a new book by Mehrsa Baradaran, The Color of Money, this absence of wealth isn't just a failure to atone for oppression imposed by slavery and Jim Crow â it's the product of contemporary acts to maintain their legacies.
Today, the racial wealth gap persists in building wealth for those who already have it and sowing debt among those who don't. Many policies animated by this trend â fees and fines...2017-11-141h 27
