Dorothy Brown: “The System Is Designed For White Wealth"
Dorothy A. Brown is a law professor and nationally recognized scholar in tax policy. She chose her field because she believed it was free from racism. She soon discovered how wrong she was. Her new book, "The Whiteness of Wealth: How the Tax System Impoverishes Black Americans and How We Can Fix It," draws on decades of research and personal histories, as she explains to Michel Martin.
