International Money Transfer Cost on the Rise?, Sri Lankan Parenting Ideas, Plus African-Americans and Gentrification in D.C.
Podcast Summary:
Will the cost of sending money abroad go up? What can Sri Lanka teach us about raising our children? Plus, researcher Sabiyha Prince on gentrification and African-Americans.
Some big banks are getting out of the international money-transfer business, and that’s expected to drive up the cost of sending money abroad. We talk about what that means for Marylanders with Paul Dwyer, CEO of Viamericas, a money-transfer company headquartered in Bethesda.
Then, University of Maryland, Baltimore County professor Bambi Chapin lived in Sri Lanka for two years, trying to understand why spoiled toddlers there grew into obedient children. Sheilah talks with her about the different ways Americans and Sri Lankans parent and her new book, Childhood in a Sri Lankan Village.
Plus, What are the effects of gentrification and its implications for social justice in Washington, D.C., and beyond? Tom Hall asks cultural anthropologist Sabiyha Prince.
