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.
