Today is April 30, 2024, and my guest is economist and author Glenn Lowry.
His substack is simply Glenn Lowry.
This is Glenn's second appearance on Econ Talk.
He was here in July of 2020 talking about race and inequality.
Our topic for today is his memoir, late admissions confessions of a black conservative.
Glenn, welcome back to Econ Talk.
Thanks, Russ.
It's very good to be with you.
I want to let parents listening with children know that today's conversation may include a number of topics inappropriate for children.
You may wish to listen before sharing.
This is an incredible book.
As listeners know, I'm very busy.
I'm not sure listeners know that I try to read every page of every book I discuss here on econtalk.
So when I'm asked to consider a book of 448 pages, which is the length of late admissions, I usually just say no right away.
