Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly examines the causes and consequences of inequality—and strategies to combat it. The first article examines how corporate tax breaks allow companies to make big profits without contributing to the public good. Our next article looks at how unionized academic workers at the University of California are organizing to realize racial and gender equity in their contract fights. We also feature a webinar clip in which john powell argues that the idea of equity needs to be updated to reflect what groups need in common to thrive—a concept called targeted universalism. Finally, we take a look at how Federal Reserve policy can make housing even more unaffordable.
