Are We on the Verge of an Eviction Crisis?
With little access to affordable housing, the majority of poor Americans spend more than half of their incomes on keeping a roof over their heads. Many end up on the street. "The Eviction Lab" at Princeton University proposes remedies that are in turn the key to economic mobility. Princeton sociologist Matthew Desmond talks with Michel Martin about our broken system.
