  • Summary

  • In the second episode of the 2020 Election season, I interview Dr. Lisa D. Cook, Professor of Economics and International Relations at Michigan State University. She talks about her family’s amazing role in the Civil Rights Movement (her mother was the first African American Professor at Georgia College and State University, and her grandfather worked with MLK, Sr.!). We discuss the field of economics, the need for more Black women to become economists, and the wonderful work being done by groups like the Sadie Collective. I ask Dr. Cook about her role as a White House aide to President Obama and she talks about her experiences living in Russia and post-genocide Rwanda. Dr. Cook provides solutions about how to rebuild a post-Trump America, from fighting COVID to economic recovery to the restoration of democratic institutions.
