Prof Richard Wilkinson discusses inequality and well-being on 94.1 KPFA

Our co-founder and trustee, Professor Richard Wilkinson, featured on ‘Against the Grain’ on Monday 11th February to speak about inequality, well-being and the findings of The Inner Level.

In this episode, Richard argues that unequal socieities are bad for everyone, including the affluent, not only because inequality affects schools and healthcare, but because it also makes us anxious and unhappy. He reflects on psychological well-being in wealthy but unequal countries.

‘Against the Grain’ is an in-depth analysis and commentary on a variety of matters — political, economic, social, and cultural — important to progressive and radical thinking and activism, and is co-produced and co-hosted by Sasha Lilley and C.S. Soong for 94.1 KPFA, the first community supported radio station in the USA.
