Racial discrimination in banking

We look at how the world of finances perpetuates inequalities in the US

In this episode we investigate racial discrimination in the banking system and find out how it affects the businesses owned by people of colour. We’ll also ask why so few governments plan effectively for catastrophe and hear about the impact that has had on the ability to react to Covid-19 - and what it might mean for future challenges. Plus we’ll hear from the Welsh choir who are longing to sing together once again. Presented by Lucy Burton.
