Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Howard J. Samuels Memorial Lecture. Why is the Rent so Darn High? Cities, Infrastructure and Housing
Q: What policies at the federal level could meaningfully promote housing supply without overreach?
Use targeted incentives that reward actual increases in housing production in high‑demand areas, while respecting local autonomy and avoiding blunt mandates; focus on transportation and development funding tied to permitting growth, rather than broad rent subsidies.
Ackerman Lecture: Creating a Better Future Together
Q: How can students get involved in environmental justice within their schools and communities?
Begin with voting and civic participation, join or form campus organizations focused on environmental justice, seek partnerships with local communities, and translate passion into practical projects like community gardens, clean energy initiatives, or education campaigns.
Ackerman Lecture: Creating a Better Future Together
Q: What would be your best advice for someone young starting out focused on environmental concerns?
Start with your own community, understand the local challenges, and connect your passion to a concrete plan or program that can be scaled or sustained; find mentors, build internships or nonprofit pathways, and engage through trusted local organizations.
Ackerman Lecture. Where We Went from There: The Fight for Multiracial Democracy in an Age of Authoritarianism
Q: How do you see DEI policies evolving in a future administration, and what should firms do to respond?
DEI was historically beneficial and will likely persist in some form because demographic shifts demand inclusive practices, but there will be inertia and pushback; institutions should adapt by balancing diverse perspectives with practical, evidence-based approaches and by highlighting the substantive benefits of inclusive environments.
Ackerman Lecture. Where We Went from There: The Fight for Multiracial Democracy in an Age of Authoritarianism
Q: Can you speak a little bit about how Black Lives Matter fits into the broader arc of social movements?
Black Lives Matter is presented as a contemporary eruption of grassroots organizing that builds on the long history of civil rights activism, showing how racial justice movements germinate seeds that eventually blossom into broader political and cultural change, even if they emerge at times that seem disconnected from earlier milestones.
