Nice to see...

Dr. Cecilia Rouse appointed Brookings’s ninth President. Dr. Rouse has had a distinguished career. She has served three American presidents. As the first Black American to ever serve as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers... her public service has been matched with her academic excellence as a labor economist and a former dean of the Princeton School of Public and Int'lAffairs.

What a fascinating perspective on cryptocurrency and vulnerable communities by Tonantzin Carmona. (As posted by @molly0xfff)
