The Injustice of Place by H. Luke Shaefer, Kathryn Edin, and Timothy Jon Nelson
The Injustice of Place: Uncovering the Legacy of Poverty in America" by H. Luke Shaefer, Kathryn Edin, and Timothy Jon Nelson, is a profound examination of entrenched poverty in often overlooked areas of the United States.
The authors, renowned for their research into poverty in America, shift their focus from the nation's poorest people to its poorest places, revealing a startling reality.
They discovered that America's most disadvantaged communities are predominantly rural, contrary to the common perception that the most severe poverty is found in big cities.
This significant finding spurred a five-year investigative journey through regions like Appalachia, the Cotton and Tobacco Belts of the Deep South, and South Texas.
Throughout the book, the authors delve into centuries of local history, participate in community events, and engage deeply with the residents of these areas. They uncover the legacies of extreme poverty in the United States, highlighting how inequalities affect people's health, livelihoods, and chances for upward social mobility.
