Join us in another Panel Discussion on ‘Denial of Access to Capital and Continuing Social Injustice’ on Saturday, 29th May, 2021 at 10 AM (GMT +1) on zoom (link below) or catch us on Facebook Live.
The discussion will address the denial of capital by means of discrimination and how it led to an unequal distribution of social goods, which further led to a perpetuation of inequality across many societies. To unpack the underpinning causes and impacts of contemporary forms of social injustices, Mazeltov invites speakers to delve into how different laws and policies instigated at different times has lent itself to the continuation of disenfranchisement.
