About this Event
Baylor Law Professor Whitney Holmes Talks Poverty Law and Policy
Join us at the Lee Lockwood Library and Museum on March 26, 2026 at 12:00 PM (Central Time) to hear Professor Holmes talk about poverty law and policy. Here's a break down of the essential points: "Contemporary credit systems do more than just price risk—they produce, distribute, and entrench risk through ostensibly neutral lending practices. Building on legal, economic, and sociological accounts of how markets organize and channel power, The Violence of the Banks traces how seemingly objective metrics like “creditworthiness" can reproduce inequality by sorting borrowers into economic, social, and physical zones of neglect."
You don't want to miss this talk. It’s a great chance to learn, ask questions, and connect with others interested in poverty law and policy.
Light snacks and refreshments provided after the Q&A session.
