About this listen

What happens when a nation built on the promise to “promote the general welfare” decides who’s actually worthy of that welfare?

In this episode of Equity Matters, we trace the racialized roots of America’s social safety net — from Mothers’ Pensions that rewarded white respectability to New Deal policies that excluded Black labor and follow how those early moral judgments still echo in today’s debates over WIC, SNAP, and the federal budget.
