Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 1.5 million North Carolinians today live in poverty. More than one in five are children. Behind these sobering statistics are the faces of our fellow citizens. This book tells their stories. Since 2012, Gene R. Nichol has traveled the length of North Carolina, conducting hundreds of interviews with poor people and those working to alleviate the worst of their circumstances. In an afterword to this new edition, Nichol draws on fresh data and interviews with those whose voices challenge all of us to see what is too often invisible, to look past partisan divides and preconceived notions, and to seek change. Only with a full commitment as a society, Nichol argues, will we succeed in truly ending poverty, which he calls our greatest challenge.
Download or read book North Carolina s Present and Future Poor written by North Carolina Fund and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North Carolina's Present and Future Poor: A Study Based on Interviews With 11, 600 Families in 31 Low-Income Neighborhoods Census data on income and employment have been very helpful to North Carolinians who have planned programs for economic development and human resource development in this decade. However, there is a great need for more specific data about the poor, their condition, their aspirations, their habits and their self-perception. To provide these valuable data, the North Carolina Fund in 1965 obtained a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity for an ln-depth survey of low-income families in 31 target areas located in counties where the Fund supported community action experiments. This publication attempts to use these data to provide insight into the problems and the prospects of the poor of today and tomorrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Offers a new interpretation of the war on poverty by demonstrating the centrality of moderate local leadership (both white and black) in launching and operating antipoverty programs.”—Marisa Chappell, author of The War on Welfare: Family, Poverty, and Politics in Modern America “Hawkins has done a remarkable job of mining the sources and reconstructing the reality of what was going on in eastern North Carolina.”—Frank Stricker, author of Why America Lost the War on Poverty—And How to Win It While many scholars have argued that confrontation and protest were the most effective ways for the poor to empower themselves during the social change of the 1960s, Karen Hawkins demonstrates that moderate leadership and biracial cooperation were sometimes just as forceful. Everybody’s Problem shows these values at play in the nation’s first rural-based Community Action Agency to receive federal funding as a part of Lyndon B. Johnson’s War on Poverty. Hawkins describes the founding of Craven Operation Progress in one of the poorest regions of North Carolina. She discusses the philosophies and tactics of its directors and outlines the tensions that arose between local leadership and federal control. Using previously untapped primary sources, including oral interviews with antipoverty workers and local citizens, records from the U.S. Office of Equal Employment Opportunity, and documents from the North Carolina Fund, Hawkins adds to the story of the factors that helped lower poverty rates and advance economic development during the 1960s and beyond. A volume in the series Southern Dissent, edited by Stanley Harrold and Randall M. Miller
