Welcome to the Season One finale of Indebted! Our episodes have focused on exposing how debt harms Black people and the entire economy—but people are fighting back. There are reasons to hope for a better, debt-free future. In this episode Maurice is joined by four heavy hitters in the fight against debt and its roots in systemic racism. They discuss the many approaches to tackling these problems, from education and legislation to policy advocacy and direct action.
