Know Your Price, Dr. Andre Perry's dynamic new book, offers concrete policy solutions that lift up Black communities and asks us to invest in Black people as he defines six Black-majority cities whose assets and strengths are undervalued. A fellow at the non-partisan Brookings Institute in Washington, D.C., Dr. Perry has long studied economic models around housing devaluation which leads to substandard education and substandard infrastructure in Black communities. In this incredibly useful interview, he offers ideas that stop blaming Black people and instead asks Americans to use this watershed moment as an opportunity to change the racial structures that feed and reproduce the inequality in America. A young child brought up in Wilkinsburg, a small city east of Pittsburgh, raised by his adopted mother, Andre Perry's knowledge is deep.
