Poverty, Politics, and Race gives a true face to poverty, while knocking down stereotypes on race and the poor; and sheds light on how the politics of the past and present have magnified issues of race in America. The book also gives a personal look back at an important period in civil rights in America's history and sounds an alarm at the renewed and very open racial hatred that resurfaced with the election of the first African-American U.S. President. It takes a critical look at current events affecting the lives of average Americans through the prism of a Black woman who has experienced firsthand the effects of poverty, race, and the politics surrounding both issues. The book hopefully will help remove the blinders and lead to a more honest discussion on the divisions in our country and ways we can begin to heal them.
