More than 37 million people in the US are living in poverty, with marginalized racial groups such as Black and Hispanic communities making up the larger proportions of low-income families. These Blinks look at how anyone can fall through the cracks and into a vicious cycle of poverty, why "just working hard" isn't the solution, and how the criminalization of poverty works in favor of the wealth gap. You'll explore first-hand accounts of everyday Americans struggling to make ends meet, the systems that keep them under the poverty line, and what must be done to overturn this plight.
