White Poverty is a groundbreaking book that challenges the persistent myth that Black skin is associated with poverty. Despite having forty million more poor white people than Black people, most Americans still view poverty as solely a Black problem. Reverend Dr. William J. Barber II, a leading advocate for the rights of the poor, addresses this issue in his groundbreaking work. The book challenges the definition of who is poor in America and highlights the pain of poor white families who have been offered little more than their "whiteness" in an economy where housing, healthcare, and education costs have skyrocketed and wages have stagnated. The book argues that tens of millions of America's poorest earners share much in common, providing a visionary approach to American poverty.
