Star Parker on New Book, 'The State of Black Progress'

The Dom Giordano Program

Dom welcomes in Star Parker, President of the Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE), which she founded in 1995, back onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss a new book that she provided the introduction for titled The State of Black Progress: Confronting Government and Judicial Obstacles, which examines developments in the black community and a trend toward conservativism. Parker explains the reasons behind the shift, noting that many are waking up to the realization of the damage that’s been done by progressive policies on the black community, with tons looking at what they face in a Biden economy and recognizing how much better things were under the Trump administration. Then, Giordano delves into the issue of school choice, a topic that would benefit the black community deeply, noting that rappers Jay-Z and Meek Mill have now thrown their support behind the issue, with Parker explaining why the theory makes sense.
