Summary of Poverty, by America By Matthew Desmond

IN THIS SUMMARIZED BOOK, YOU WILL GET:

  • Chapter astute outline of the main contents.
  • Fast & simple understanding of the content analysis.
  • Exceptionally summarized content that you may skip in the original book
  • Matthew Desmond's Evicted reimagines the debate on poverty, making a new and bracing argument that it persists in America because the rest of us benefit from it. He draws on history, research, and original reporting to show how affluent Americans exploit the poor, prioritize the subsidization of wealth over the alleviation of poverty, and stockpile opportunity in exclusive communities. This compassionate book gives us new ways of thinking about a morally urgent problem and helps us imagine solutions. Desmond calls on us all to become poverty abolitionists to usher in a new age of shared prosperity and true freedom.
