Author: Sasha Abramsky

Published: September 2013

Book Summary:

In many ways, for the majority of Americans, financial insecurity has become the new norm.

The American Way of Poverty: How the Other Half Still Lives shines a light on this travesty. Sasha Abramsky brings the effects of economic inequality out of the shadows and, ultimately, suggests ways for moving toward a fairer and more equitable social contract. Exploring everything from housing policy to wage protections and affordable higher education, Abramsky lays out a panoramic blueprint for a reinvigorated political process that, in turn, will pave the way for a renewed War on Poverty.
