The Sum of Us: The Cost of the Zero-Sum Myth — How Division Dismantles Public Goods

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time. System Orientation Paragraph This episode explores The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together by Heather McGhee as a systems-level examination of how racialized political incentives shape public goods, economic policy, and democratic perception. Structural Framing Paragraph Rather than focusing on individual morality or personal solutions, this episode treats the book as a systems narrative — revealing how zero-sum framing, institutional incentives, and feedback loops produce outcomes that persist even when widely criticized or understood. From drained public pools to weakened labor protections, the analysis maps how division is structurally rewarded and how its costs ripple outward across communities.
