This week, a conversation about building a more equitable and sustainable economy, and another one about a new novel that grapples with the idea of martyrdom. We’ll hear from poet and novelist Kaveh Akbar in the second half of this program. But first, Nick Romeo. He’s just published The Alternative: How to Build a Just Economy. Based on years of reporting for the New Yorker magazine, the book explores bold experiments and initiatives from around the world that address economic inequities.
