The Color of Money by Mehrsa Baradaran [BOOK DISCUSSION & SUMMARY]
💰 Why does the racial wealth gap persist—and what can be done to close it?In The Color of Money, Mehrsa Baradaran uncovers the deep-rooted history of economic injustice in America. By examining the rise of Black-owned banks and the challenges they’ve faced, Baradaran reveals how systemic racism, discriminatory policies, and financial inequality have kept wealth out of the hands of Black communities. This powerful book breaks down the myth that Black capitalism alone can fix these disparities—and instead highlights the need for broader structural change.Join our AI ho...

The Foreign Report
Ukraine’s Nukes, Trump’s Trade War, and Mehrsa Baradaran on Neoliberalism
We deep dive into Ukraine’s nuclear past—how it once held the world’s third-largest nuclear arsenal and whether its 1994 decision to disarm was a historic mistake, given Russia’s repeated betrayals. Then, we break down Trump’s 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. Finally, Mehrsa Baradaran, author of "The Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of America," joins us to discuss neoliberalism, corporate influence on policy, and the future of...

The Quiet Coup: Interview with Professor Mehrsa Baradaran

We discussed Baradaran’s latest book, The Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of America, in which she seeks to explain the origins of why college graduates struggle to achieve financial security; why the government seems so inept in the face of natural disasters; and why so many seem to be barely getting by even as pundits tell us the economy is strong.

In this episode, I have the great pleasure of speaking with law professor Mehrsa Baradaran, the author of “The Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of America” 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...

The Cancerous Growth of a Neoliberal War Machine
Whoa, Nelly — one of my favorite authors, Mehrsa Baradaran, just published a new book, The Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and the Looting of America. 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 — which was essentially one giant excuse to maintain the status quo. As neoliberals accrued more power, they eradicated check after check on capitalism, ultimately leading to a quiet, legal coup and the growth of a cancerous war machine. This is a public episode.

116: America’s Legalized Corruption with Legal Scholar Mehrsa Baradaran
Celebrated 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 nation’s wealth. This statistic makes sense, since Blacks weren’t allowed to own capital as enslaved people — 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...

Episode 0250 - The BANKS are FRAGILE but Regulations Won't FIX Anything!
The fractional reserve banking system is like an upside-down pyramid with all the deposits from people and businesses at the massive base pressing down on the tiny little tip that is our trust in the banking system and the government's FDIC program that supposedly supports it. Ask yourself how an FDIC Fund with $120 billion in it can insure deposits of over $10 trillion. Obviously, it can't. So what we're really left with is TRUST in a woefully fragile system.

Oprah and the "Debt Diet" w/ Mehrsa Baradaran

It also launched the eight-step “debt diet” program. But the episodes didn’t get at the larger structural questions of why families end up in debt, and why it’s so hard to break free.

Book Review: The Color of Money by Mehrsa Baradaran
The 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." 🔐 Join our Patreon community to get early access, exclusive content, merch, and become a part of our private community! 👉 https://www.patreon.com/LiteracyKings CashApp...

The Gray Area with Sean Illing
The cognitive cost of poverty (with Sendhil Mullainathan)
If you’re a Parks and Rec fan, you’ll remember Ron Swanson’s Pyramid of Greatness. Right there at the base sits “Capitalism: God’s way of determining who is smart and who is poor.”It’s 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 aren’t smart enough, or hard-working enough, or they’re not making good enough decisions. There’s a moral void in that logic to begin with — but it also gets the reality largely backward. “The poor do...

Philadelphia Bans Cashless Stores
Philadelphia has become the first major U.S. city to ban “cashless” 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? To discus...

The history of what we now call opportunity zones
The 2017 tax cut in the US included a provision that would forgive capital gains taxes, if invested for ten years in an "opportunity zone" — 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. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this episode, Mehrsa Baradaran, Associate Dean for Strategic Initiatives & Robert Cotten Alston Associate Chair in Corporate Law at the University of Georgia School of Law, discusses her book, "The Color of Money: Black Banks and the Racial Wealth Gap," which was published by Harvard University Press. Baradaran begins by describing both the conventional wisdom on the history of African-American banks and the very different reality. She explains how discrimination and lack of access to capital have hamstrung African-American banks time and time again, focusing on particular examples of how white economic power undermined the viability of black institutions.

Political power and the racial wealth gap
The 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. One of the first episodes of Vox’s new Netflix show, Ex...

Mehrsa Baradaran on Black Banks and the Racial Wealth Gap
The racial wealth gap is among the most dire problems in contemporary society. As of 2014, Black households had fewer than seven cents for every dollar owned by white households. This situation of racial wealth inequity is disturbingly similar to the one that existed at the end of slavery. Today, we welcome back to the show Mehrsa Baradaran, our guest from episode 30. We speak to Mehrsa about her recent book about the history of the racial wealth gap and how Black banks—a solution that is often suggested—have instead operated as a decoy, and distracted from more far...

The Color of Money
When the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, the black community owned less than one percent of the United States’ total wealth. More than 150 years later, that number has barely budged. 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 — 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 — fees and fines...

Oral Argument

Authenticity, professionalism, and, obviously, nudist colonies. Also: Mehrsa’s aspiration to be the Postmaster Genera...

Episode 9: Torches and Pitchforks

But then, you probably do, because everyone does. We talk about, among other things, how one should say “Mehrsa,” what banking is, It’s a Wonderful Life, how banks are subsidized and regulated, how 40 percent of the country doesn’t really bank or at least “underbanks,” and payday lenders. Christian does not call Joe “Adam Smith.” Mehrsa defends banking at the post office (dubbed by one banking industry exec “the worst idea since the For...
