Why is there so much poverty in America? Pulitzer Prize-winning sociologist Matthew Desmond answers that complicated question in, “Poverty, By America,” arguing this suffering persists because people of means benefit from it often without even realizing. Desmond, a professor at Princeton University, joins us to share his wake-up call to affluent Americans and why ending poverty is not impossible.
