How have conditions changed since 1970 in neighborhoods where Black residents are the largest racial or ethnic group? Mike Lens wrote a whole book on the subject: Where the Hood At? Fifty Years of Change in Black Neighborhoods. He takes the guest mic to share what he learned.Book summary: Substantial gaps exist between Black Americans and other racial and ethnic groups in the U.S., most glaringly Whites, across virtually all quality-of-life indicators. Despite strong evidence that neighborhood residence affects life outcomes, we lack a comprehensive picture of Black neighborhood conditions and how they have changed over time. In Where the Hood At? urban planning and public policy scholar Michael C.

Andy wants to share one of his favorite episodes from this year that's just as relevant today as it was when we taped it. Millions of student loan borrowers breathed a sigh of relief after the White House revealed a plan to wipe clean a huge swath of debt (though it's currently tied up in the courts). How meaningful is this policy, what are the broader implications to the economy, and will it help future borrowers? Harvard Economist Susan Dynarski and the Brookings Institution Senior Fellow Andre Perry break down the plan and use their own experiences to humanize the root problems that this relief begins to address. Plus, Andre argues why you will benefit from this policy even if you won't get debt wiped personally. Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt.

Andre Perry has spent years researching majority-Black communities, and he's reached a stark conclusion: “There's nothing wrong with Black people that ending racism can't solve.” His 2020 book, Know Your Price: Valuing Black lives and property in America's Black cities, explores this idea and its ramifications for Black uplift, and more specifically the valuation of Black property. Why are homes in Black-owned neighborhoods undervalued and underappraised? What role can — or should — homeownership play in closing America's massive racial wealth gap? And how much can housing policy achieve when, as Dr. Perry puts it, “Property is not devalued; people are.” We discuss the book, the research that informed it, and his subsequent work identifying the keys to success for majority-Black cities and neighborhoods.

Hiring Perry for the job comes after Chuck Swanson, longtime Hancher director, https://www.thegazette.com/news/chuck-swanson-announces-retirement-from-hancher-auditorium/ (announced in February that he would be retiring) this summer. Hancher has been Swanson's passion project, connecting people from national and international stardom to UI students, staff, the community, state and region. In announcing his move, Swanson said it's time to bring in “fresh eyes” to chart Hancher's future as it moves to a self-sustaining model. Perry will begin his new role May 16 as executive director of Hancher Auditorium and the Office of Performing Arts and Engagement at the UI. His position will carry the title of “Chuck Swanson Hancher Executive Director.” Two Cedar Rapids men are accused of stealing about $150,000 in gold and silver from the adoptive father of one of the men. Donnell Johnquille Carter, 20, and Jacob Lee Mossman, 18, are each charged with one count of first-degree theft in Linn County. Mossman already pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree burglary in Grundy County and was sentenced Tuesday to two to five years of probation, with the possibility a 10-year-prison sentence if he fails to follow the conditions of the probation. Mossman's adoptive father reported on Jan. 14 that someone had broken into his house in Grundy County between Jan. 9 and Jan. 14 and about $150,000 worth of gold and silver was missing from a safe, according to a criminal complaint filed in Grundy County. There was evidence of forced entry on a door, but no evidence of force on the safe. The man told police he believed that only he and his spouse knew the code to the safe. On Jan. 24, Cedar Rapids police contacted the Grundy County Sheriff's Office to say they had arrested Mossman after a traffic stop. While searching the car and a residence shared by Mossman and Carter, Cedar Rapids police found about $50,000 worth of gold and silver, as well as a handgun that also belonged to Mossman's adoptive father. The handgun had been stolen out of a separate safe in the house, and the man did not know it was missing until police found it and called to ask if it was his.

In this episode of Divided By Design, we'll go deeper into how we are divided by design on economic opportunity and inclusion, including the long history of the racial wealth gap. While the United States economy has experienced both amazing highs and catastrophic lows since the end of World War II, there is one economic statistic that has remained eerily constant-- white families have on average ten times the wealth of Black families in America. At the heart of the insights on this episode, the lesson remains: by leveling the playing field for Black Americans, we help ourselves, and we help our society and our nation as a whole. This episode features conversations with PolicyLink founder Angela Glover Blackwell, Brookings' Dr. Andre Perry, Center for American Progress' Danyelle Solomon, HOPE Credit Union's Bill Bynum, Nathaniel Smith of the Partnership for Southern Equity, and Garnesha Ezediaro who runs Bloomberg Philanthropies' Greenwood Initiative.

The Divided By Design podcast kicks off with discussions exploring the “truth” in our history, including the history of racial inequality in the United States; how systemic racism has divided and crippled this country; and the need for audacious leadership to create the change that we all desperately need to be a just and equitable America. We'll learn about some of the periods and events in our history that have laid the foundation for the systems that continue to perpetuate racism and oppress people of color in the U.S, including the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the Jim Crow era. We'll also hear from residents across the south on how racism impacts their daily lives. This episode features Dr. Eddie Glaude, Angela Glover Blackwell, Danyelle Solomon, Dr. Andre Perry and more.
