Topic: Poverty

Throughout the semester, I would like to explore current events on Poverty and Inequality.  I grew up in a single mother household with a little brother, and the biggest problem we had was money.  The poverty that I grew up in is absolutely nothing compared to the vast majority of other places around the world.  I want to learn more about these families, how they survive, the struggles they face, and what society is doing to help, if anything.
