Associate Professor Damon Jones Discusses Economic Inequality and Jay-Z

Harris Public Policy Associate Professor Damon Jones was featured in The Undefeated, discussing how Jay-Z raps about his wealth.

"[Jay-Z's] one person, so he doesn't represent an entire system, so people who are looking to change that system will do that with or without him," said Jones. "If that's the reason why anyone should be a billionaire, to donate money to poor people, what if we solved poverty? Then what are you left with in terms of your justification for amassing all that wealth? Are you back to just saying what I really wanna do is have a lot of control, power, wealth?"
