IPR Seminar Series – Dr. Fenaba Addo
Dr. Fenaba Addo, Assistant Professor, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Title of Talk: Wealth Inequality in Young Adulthood: Defining the Black Middle Class.
Abstract: The message that post-secondary education is one of the strongest predictors of socioeconomic mobility, for Black and Latinx young adults in particular, is quite pervasive. It was not until recently, however, that we as society begin to grapple with amount of debt that individuals are having to take on in order to complete their post-secondary degrees. Using data of youth born in the early 1980s, this new research examines racial inequality in wealth in young adulthood, its relationship with higher education, and what is means to be middle class.
