Book Review for Evicted by Matthew Desmond

Description

One-two paragraph summary of the book. Three specific and detailed ways the book connects back to topics we have discussed in class. Be specific, provide support, dig deep – the more so – the better The SINGLE most interesting thing you learned from the book One specific weakness of the book Discuss one individual solution to being “poor”. In other words, if eviction is driven by poverty how does this book provide insights into how a person can pull themselves out of poverty?  Really?   Discuss one political/social solution to the problems(s) noted in the book.  Again, support your answer. For full credit, you must capture how a better and expanded housing voucher program for low income people might reduce the suffering evidenced in this book.  Argue for or against (NOT BOTH) the following: Milwaukee’s housing problems are different from Southern California’s housing problems.  Of course, support your answer for full credit.
