There is no question that the coronavirus pandemic has hit the economy hard, with overall unemployment in the US at 14.7%. For African American and Latino communities, the impact is worse - 16.7% and 18.9% respectively. How will black and brown communities recover from this economic downturn? Dr. Eric Claville, Director of the Center for African American Public Policy at Norfolk State University, explores why minority communities have been hit the hardest and what must be done to make these communities economically viable again.
