🧵My TED talk is live! A prejudiced C-SPAN caller...the financial crisis...our gutted safety net all made me ask: "what if racism has a cost for everyone?" #CostsofRacism @TEDTalks bit.ly/thesumofus
2/"Racism leads to bad policymaking. It’s making our economy worse, in ways that don’t only disadvantage people of color. It turns out it’s not a zero sum. Racism has costs for white people, too.” bit.ly/thesumofus @TEDTalks
3/“In Montgomery, Alabama, I saw how racism destroyed a public good and the public will to support it. In 1959, the town drained their public swimming pool rather than integrate it. It was never rebuilt.” bit.ly/thesumofus
