> CFA would like to inform you about Inequality for All, showing this Saturday, October 26, 2013, 7 p.m. at the Art Theater Co-op (126 W. Church St., downtown Champaign). Economic inequality in the U.S. has risen to a level not seen since the Great Depression. Inequality for All exposes what is happening to our society: who benefits and who loses out as wealth becomes ever more concentrated. Our university feels the effects on a daily basis―the state pushes the cost of college onto students who can pay or borrow to come here, which shuts out students from lower income families and perpetuates the cycle of inequality.

> Inequality for All examines the crisis of widening income inequality in the US through the eyes and the influential work of Robert Reich. Winner of the Documentary Special Jury Prize at Sundance, where that jury said, “With clarity, humor and heart, this timely film reveals the underpinnings of an urgent threat to American democracy.” Robert Reich is a best-selling author of thirteen books, Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy at UC Berkeley, former Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration, and a foremost expert on economics.
