In 2020, The Second Annual Sadie T.M. Alexander Conference for Economics and Related Fields took place in Washington D.C. from February 20 through February 22. This year, we are excited and grateful for the opportunity to be working with the Urban Institute and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation as well as the Brookings Institution, and the American Economic Association to expand our annual conference and continue our mission.

Invited to speak were practicing economists and policy practitioners across academia, government, industry, and non-governmental agencies, such as the former Chair of the Federal Reserve Board, Janet Yellen, Dean Bridget Terry Long of Harvard Graduate School of Education, the founder of the Black Economic Alliance, Akunna Cook, and Ebele Ifedigbo, founder of The Hood Incubator.
