The 5th biennial Boston Indicators Report finds that our successful knowledge economy has lead to widening income inequality. As Baby Boomers retire, we must educate all children to high standards to sustain prosperity and rebalance social equity.

View video clips of the John LaWare Leadership Forum at which the Boston Indicators Report was released.

 

Read Renee Loth’s column on the report and it's findings: the report and it's findings: Another Tale of Two Cities.

We opened the 2009-2010 series in January with a closer examination of the report, "A Great Reckoning: Healing a Growing Divide", and an effort to fully define the problem of income inequality in Boston.

Chet Curtis and Paul Grogan were joined by four panelists who deal first-hand with the issues of income inequality every day.

They were:

Carol Johnson, Superintendent of the Boston Public Schools;
Tiziana Dearing, the President of Catholic Charities for the Archdiocese of Boston;
Professor Paul Harrington, Associate Director of the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University;
and Ron Walker is President and Founding Partner of Next Street Financial
