If America's gross national income of over $14 trillion were divided evenly between the entire US population, every household could call itself middle class. Yet the income level disparity in the US is now wider than at any point since the Great Depression. So Rich, So Poor
If America's gross national income of over £14 trillion were divided evenly between the entire US population, every household could call itself middle class.

So Rich, So Poor delves into what is happening to the people behind the statistics and takes a particular look at the continuing crisis of young African Americans. Crucial reading for anyone who wishes to understand the most critical American dilemma of the 21st century.
