Poverty and Racial Bias: Searching for Answers
« back to classes page
Two problems that have plagued America throughout our history are poverty and racial bias. These problems are in some respects two sides of the same coin. This study group will examine both of them in detail with the goal of discovering resolutions to each. Helping to guide us forward to some practical solutions are two authors who are familiar with both of these problems. They are Matthew Desmond in his book
Poverty, by America
(Random House, 2023) and Monica McDermott in her book
Whiteness in America
(Polity Press, 2020). We look forward to lively discussions on both topics.
