Part 1:
We talk with Lindsay Owens, Executive Director, Groundworks Collaborative, and author.
We discuss how manufacturers and distributors are gouging customers, thus increasing inflation. We talk about the reasons (they get away with it), and how customers perceive this as general inflation, when in fact it is due to greed. Corporate profits are increasing. We also touch on what can be done to stop this behavior.
Part 2:
We talk with Larry Tye, author and journalist.
We discuss his book: "Rising from the Rails", about how the Pullman porters were the precursors of the modern labor movement and civil rights movement. We discuss how they were also instrumental in creating the Black middle class.
