Coalition Book Discussion: Evicted

Join the CLP for a discussion of Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City by Matthew Desmond! This 2016 bestseller by a Harvard sociologist examines the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to relate the stories of eight families living on the edge, all of whose fates rest in the hands of two landlords. Desmond provides a close view of the issue of eviction, which so many American families face. Unrated.
