Race & Economics: How Much Can Be Blamed on Discrimination? by Walter E. Williams
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.5MB
Overview: In this sharp and data-driven work, economist Walter E. Williams challenges widely held assumptions about race, poverty, and inequality in America. Race & Economics examines the historical and contemporary roots of economic disparities, asking a central question: how much of what affects Black Americans today is truly due to discrimination — and how much stems from government policy, labor regulation, and culture?
Williams, known for his clear-eyed libertarian approach, explores how well-meaning interventions like minimum wage laws, union protections, and public housing have often backfired — limiting opportunities and reducing upward mobility in minority communities. He draws a contrast between market-driven progress and politically motivated constraints, arguing that economic freedom is the most powerful tool for achieving racial equity.
For listeners seeking an alternative to conventional racial discourse, this audiobook delivers a rigorous, often provocative perspective grounded in economic logic, individual responsibility, and historical analysis. It’s a vital contribution to the national conversation on race and policy — one that refuses to shy away from hard truths.
