Hillary Clinton vs. Complacency; Intergenerational Poverty - On this episode of To the Contrary, host Bonnie Erbé leads a discussion on two important topics. First, the panel delves into the recent media attention around former Secretary of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her warnings about the dangers of complacency. Clinton has been urging Democrats to not take anything for granted leading up to the 2020 election, cautioning against the idea that victory is assured. The panel examines Clinton's message and discusses whether it's necessary for Democrats to be worried about complacency.
Next, the discussion focuses on intergenerational poverty, particularly among women and children. Poverty can be passed down from one generation to the next, and women are often more likely to experience poverty than men. The panel looks at some of the causes of intergenerational poverty and discusses potential solutions to break the cycle. They explore the role of education, job training, and social programs in helping families move out of poverty and into sustainable economic stability.
As always, the panel includes diverse perspectives and insights from women leaders and experts on these important issues. Don't miss this thought-provoking and informative episode of To the Contrary.
