Description
Ray McGuire, Vice Chairman of Citigroup, calls for executive action in response to the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and other Black Americans. He recommends companies work to close the opportunity gap in the U.S. with investments in early education technology for Black communities. As he recounts his own journey to Wall Street boardrooms, he says, “It’s not about me...it’s about all of those kids who look like me.” As nationwide protests of systemic racism continue, states across the country attempt to reopen their economies and stem a resurgence of Covid-19. Former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb discusses the uncertain path ahead and highlights which states are on the right track.
