A review by jenswagner
Poverty, by America by Matthew Desmond

5.0

4.5 stars. Really informative, engaging - and ultimately hopeful - book about how we must take responsibility for how the systems we’ve created and go along with create and support poverty. Strong and specific calls to action on the large and individual scale at the end. I really appreciate how direct he is about who benefits from this system (spoiler alert: almost all of us) and how and what can be done about it.
