Atlanta Fed President says economic ‘uncertainty abounds’; New documentary on America’s first Black Supreme Court Justice
Description
On today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” we discuss the latest quarterly economic report from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta with analysis from President and Chief Executive Officer Raphael Bostic. The report on the southeastern United States shows a slight economic decline, with tariffs rising from 2% to 18% since late 2024. Despite current complexities, Bostic also shares his optimism.
Also, we speak with Alexis Aggrey, the director of the new documentary, “Becoming Thurgood: America's Social Architect.” The film follows Marshall’s historic rise from visionary lawyer to civil rights leader and to America’s first Black Supreme Court Justice. A free screening of the documentary will be held on Monday, September 8th at Spelman's Mary Schmidt Campbell Center for Innovation & the Arts.
