Join us for a discussion of the growing concentration of wealth and income—a quarter-century-long trend explored by the new book Inequality Matters. Published by the New Press in partnership with Demos*, the book is a series of connected essays by Rapoport, Lardner and (among many others) Bill Moyers, Barbara Ehrenreich, and Theda Skocpol. The authors examine the causes and multi-dimensional effects of the inequality trend, which has left its mark on health care, education, retirement security, economic and racial justice, and more.
