It's been a little while since we've done a Sprint Podcast! Things, as ever, are busy in UVAFinance, but we have been hosting regular Sprint discussions. In this episode, Patty and LaVerne catch you up on our March discussions on Fear. Next time, they'll recap our recent round robins, which have (rather delightfully) been all over the place, covering topics from women's sports to healthcare disparities to AI.
Resources Mentioned: Caste by Isabel Wilkerson

Patty and LaVerne recap the history of UVAFinance's Sprint conversations. They also summarize the January 19 Sprint:
Our discussion about the Charlottesville Unite the Right case, including punitive vs. compensatory damages – and why they were reduced from $24 million that the jury awarded to $350,000 (apparently the cap mandated by law). We also talked about Twitter and freedom of speech and who gets to say what is acceptable speech and what is hate speech. Brandi recommended this book: https://www.amazon.com/Opposite-Hate-Field-Repairing-Humanity/dp/1616207280#customerReviews.
In February we’re going to focus on allyship (February 9 and 23). Contact uvafequityactionteam@virginia.edu with questions, suggestions, or to be put on our invite list. UVAFinance Sprints are optional and open to all.
