Summary

Inclusion is not the same thing as equity. Today on the show, sociologist Dr. Angela Simms exposes the "hidden tax" on Black excellence. We're diving into the reality of Prince George's County—where Black families have the income, but the government keeps the investment. Dr. Simms shares the jarring truth about why moving "up" doesn't always mean moving "away" from systemic harm.
