  • Summary

  • Rising inequality is a choice. Economic policy makers and captains of industry label it the pain we have to go through if we want to come out the other end stronger and richer. Please. There’s ‘no proof’ say experts who are currently seeing a fundamental reframing of global poverty as a national issue of redistribution. In this episode, social enterprise innovator J Kevin Barlow talks about how a vibrant local business community is helping their portion of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) regenerate one of Canada’s most poverty stricken neighbourhoods. An Indigenous leader from the Mi’kmaw and Executive Director of the Hastings Crossing BIA that operates in the area, Kevin explains how ‘poverty’ never even used to exist within Indigenous communities, but now, its growing shadow is requiring communities and local businesses to work together in entirely new ways.
