Just listened to the 100 Years Since Sadie Alexander episode. GREAT EPISODE!!! In 1921, Sadie Alexander became the first Black person in America to receive a PhD in economics. Then, she was functionally shut out of economics jobs, got a law degree, and became an attorney instead. A century later, economics has made notably little progress bringing Black women into the field. This episode focuses on The Sadie Collective to bring you three stories about how this is changing and people changing it.
