Manhattan Institute senior fellow Jason Riley joined Brown University’s Glenn Loury to discuss Dr. Loury’s upcoming Manhattan Institute working paper, followed with a panel conversation moderated by Howard Husock.
Despite the tremendous progress made by many African-Americans over the past half-century, the black community continues to experience disproportionate hardship on measures such as poverty, college completion, crime, and out-of-wedlock births. How do we explain today’s disparities in progress for Black America? Are they the products of structural injustices, cultural forces, some synthesis of the two, or other as-yet-unidentified factors?
Panel:
Michael Fortner, Assistant Professor of Political Science, CUNY Graduate Center
Coleman Hughes, Class of 2020, Columbia University
Howard Husock, Vice President for Research & Publications, Manhattan Institute
Ian Rowe, Chief Executive Officer, Public Preparatory Network
