Description

Explore the lasting impact of one of the most controversial documents in American social policy. Blaming the Poor examines the long-term effects of the 1965 Moynihan Report, "The Negro Family," on race relations and social policy in the United States. This book analyzes how the report created a durable and misleading image of poor black families, often used to explain the causes of poverty through a lens that many consider an indictment of African American culture. Written by a leading authority on poverty and race, this work challenges the humiliating depictions found in the original report. It provides a deep look at how these historical narratives continue to shape modern perceptions and policy decisions. For students, researchers, and readers interested in social psychology and American history, this text offers a necessary critique of how social issues are framed and understood in the public eye.
