At St. John's Bread and Life, a soup kitchen in the
Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, more than a thousand people
line up for breakfast and lunch five days a week. During the
twelve-year era of welfare reform, William DiFazio observed the
daily lives of poor people at St. John's and throughout New York
City.
In this trenchant and groundbreaking work, DiFazio presents the
results of welfare reformOCofrom ending entitlements to diminished
welfare benefitsOCothrough the eyes and voices of those who were
most directly affected by it. "Ordinary Poverty" concludes with a
program to guarantee universal rights to a living wage as a crucial
way to end poverty. Ultimately, DiFazio articulates the form a true
poor people's movement would takeOCoone that would link the
interests of all social movements with the interests of ending
poverty."
