Overcoming the Racial Wealth Gap with John Rogers, Chairman, Co-CEO, and CIO of Ariel Investments
John Rogers, Chairman, Co-CEO, and CIO of Ariel Investments, joins host and Vice Dean of the Wharton Social Impact Initiative Katherine Klein to discuss the racial wealth gap in the United States and strategies to overcome it.
