Poverty, by America with Matthew Desmond
Podcast: Here's Where It Gets InterestingPublished On: Wed Aug 16 2023
Description: Today on Here’s Where It Gets Interesting, Sharon is joined by Matthew Desmond, Professor of Sociology at Princeton University and the founding director of the Eviction Lab. Together, they discuss his best-selling book, “Poverty, By America,” and take a hard look at poverty in one of the richest countries in the world, while reimagining the debate on poverty. We all know that poverty is an existing problem in the United States, but what does that actually mean? How is the “poverty line” calculated, and why is there profound suffering in such close proximity to significant wealth? Special thanks to our guest, Matthew Desmond, for joining us today.
