Introducing: White Picket Fence
This special episode of The Pay Check features "What Could Have Been", the latest episode of White Picket Fence from Wonder Media Network.How did the U.S. become a society that treats caregiving as a private family responsibility rather than a public good? In this episode, Julie explores the longstanding and continued role racism has played in preventing investments in public goods that would benefit everyone, including caregiving. We’ll also do a deep dive into the 1970s when the U.S. nearly invested in universal childcare — and how fear was deployed to block it.Check out all the episodes from the new season of White Picket Fence wherever you get your podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
