Welfare, Immigrants And The Budget Crisis : Towards A Progressive Agenda

Welfare, Immigrants And The Budget Crisis : Towards A Progressive Agenda / Julianne Malveaux. - Dr. Julianne Malveaux speaks about economics in the United States. She speaks the Republican contract with America, how the lower classes are struggling when the upper class reaps the benefits of new policies. She points to Corporate tax breaks and wage stagnation as norms in America, and the growing healthcare crisis resulting from the battle between President Clinton and the likes of Bob Dole and Rush Limbaugh. Dr. Malveaux calls for labor to organize to fight for a living wage, and calls recent opposition to affirmative action as a backslide in American social consciousness. American society, she warns, is self destructing with the solution coming from a grass roots fight and struggle to raise economic justice for all Americans. - RECORDED: Holman United Mehtodist Church, Los Angeles, 2 June 1995.
