Beth Gutelius, associate director of UIC’s Center for Urban Economic Development and senior researcher at the Great Cities Institute at UIC, is interviewed in an online story from NPR’s Washington D.C. affiliate WAMU-FM that examines the potential impacts of coronavirus on hourly workers and independent contractors in the U.S.
