Trevon D. Logan

Trevon D. Logan is an economist who studies the historical and contemporary economics of race in the United States, including racial residential segregation, discrimination in markets, the economic legacies of slavery, and reparations. Much of the work combines historical data (such as records from the Reconstruction and Civil Rights eras) with economic analysis to understand how past discrimination shapes present-day inequality in income, wealth, health, and housing. This work would suit students interested in economic history, race and public policy, or quantitative approaches to social inequality.

Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade, with a peak in 2017, a dip in the early 2020s, and a recent rebound in 2023 and 2025.
