Hollywood Live Extra #98: "American Factory" filmmakers Julia Reichert and Steve Bognar Sep 19, 2019

Show notes

When General Motors shuttered its factory outside of Dayton, Ohio, in 2008, filmmakers Julia Reichert and Steven Bognar — who documented the plant’s closing in their Oscar-nominated short “The Last Truck” — thought that was the end of yet another sad story of America’s industrial decline. But as it turned out, life had other plans. In 2014, the billionaire owner of the Chinese auto-glass manufacturing firm Fuyao decided to invest in the abandoned GM plant, hiring more than 1,000 American workers to work alongside and be trained by hundreds of Chinese workers. No one was quite sure how this experiment in cross-cultural capitalism would work out — and, as it turned out, there would be some pretty major bumps along the way, as frustrations on both sides threatened to boil over. But whatever happened, Reichert and Bognar — a self-described “long-term couple” who have lived in Dayton for decades and have focused throughout their careers on the lives of working-class men and women — knew they wanted to be there to chronicle it. Culled from 1,200 hours of footage, the resulting film, “American Factory,” went on to win the U.S. documentary directing award at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and drew the attention of a pair of newcomers to the film world: Barack and Michelle Obama.

AfroEconomics #56: Black Health Black Wealth Sep 05, 2019

Show notes

According to the CDC, the death rate among African Americans decreased 25% from 1999-2015. We are taking better care of ourselves and living longer than we have in the past. Plus, after we reach 65, the death rate is showing even more improvement. The less-good news is overall, Black folk still have a shorter life expectancy, higher likelihood of suffering from diabetes, high-blood pressure, heart disease, and dementia. Those conditions tend to hit us at much earlier ages. What does the state of Black health have to do with Black wealth? In short, everything. As I wrote about in my book, AfroEconomics: Our Black Wealth Matters, health issues lead to greater health care costs. Black people have, on average, fewer financial resources to cover those costs. Poor health also decreases your earning potential. Health problems are stealing wealth from the individual AND from the larger Black community. Money spent on doctor visits and prescriptions is money not invested, money not invested into business, money not passed to the next generation. This podcast will help you build wealth and protect your health.
