A nationally-recognized expert on income and wealth inequality and the racial wealth divide, he has authored and co-authored a number of books, including “99 to 1: How Wealth Inequality is Wrecking the World and What We Can Do About It” and, most recently, “Born on Third Base: A One Percenter Makes the Case for Tackling Inequality, Bringing Wealth Home, and Committing to the Common Good.” He co-founded United for a Fair Economy and Wealth for the Common Good (which subsequently merged in 2015 with the Patriotic Millionaires.).His talk is entitled “Fifty Years Later: Dr. King’s Vision and the Racial Wealth Divide”.
Also included in the program will be music by members of the Potluck Singers and the Silver Lake Singers, and Shana Aisenberg. Storyteller (and World Fellowship Co-Director) Andy Davis will offer a story. A guilt-free potluck will follow.
