In co-sponsorship with the UNLV Honors College, Brookings Mountain West was pleased to offer a morning conversation with Brookings David M. Rubenstein Fellow in Metropolitan Policy, Andre Perry, Ph.D., as part of the "Breakfast with A Brookings Scholar" series. Perry's research focused on race and structural inequality, education, and economic inclusion, and particularly the valuable assets worthy of investment found in majority-black places and institutions in America. He was eager to speak with students about his research areas, experience working in think-tanks, and how best to prepare for a career in public policy.
