Manage episode 507371700 series 3652895
In this episode of Apex Ascend, Rodney LaBruce explores why “poverty anywhere is a threat to prosperity everywhere.” Drawing on groundbreaking studies — from Montgomery County’s school integration to Moving to Opportunity and the Abecedarian Project — Rodney shows how poverty affects every part of society and why the biggest danger is passing it on to the next generation. He then outlines his strategy for breaking the cycle through the Unified Advocacy and Leadership Coalition (UALC) and a new community credit union designed to drive real change.
