Our Tax Code is Racist (w/ Dorothy A. Brown)

Dorothy Brown says she got into tax law precisely because it had
nothing to do with race. After twenty years of research, Dorothy
discovered—and this is going to shock you—the tax system is
racist as hell. Roxane and Dorothy explore how the tax code
caters to white Americans in almost every way, from home
ownership to marriage. Plus, Roxane reflects on the collective
responsibility of paying Uncle Sam.
