    This episode is the start of a 2 part series on a question that might seem small, but is actually really big. What are the racist policies we are not seeing? It seems impossible that we are all living in America, but most of us can’t see the racism that lives here every day. Let’s find those racist policies, and try to figure out what we can do about them. Over the course of 2 episodes, we will talk about so many things: household income, home ownership, employment, entrepreneurship, health insurance, education and crime. We will look at the huge gaps between White people and Black people or other POC, in every category. And we will look at what is happening now, to try to turn the tide, and how we can all do that too in our own lives.
    Remember, it’s a huge job. Let’s get started.
