Event Series

Join us on Tuesday, April 8 for the third event of our spring 2025 Henry Cohen Lecture Series, "The Freedom Budget: From Civil Rights to Economic Rights." Featuring Nina Turner, Cori Bush, Tamieka Atkins, and Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, the discussion will examine the enduring relevance of the 1966 Freedom Budget for All Americans—which aimed to eradicate poverty by tackling issues such as unemployment, substandard wages, poor housing and inadequate access to health services and education—in addressing the growing challenges and inequities of our contemporary political economy.
