This book describes the overall and comparative status of black and white children and families in America; the unacceptable human and public costs that result from widespread child and family poverty; our nation's failure to invest adequately and preventively in all our young--black and white, poor and middle class alike; and much more.

About the author

Marian Wright Edelman is president and founder of the Children’s Defense Fund.

Summary

Too many American families are in serious peril, and both the reality of the situation and the myths obscuring that reality call for attention and swift action. In this incisive analysis, Edelman, President of the Children’s Defense Fund, charts what is happening, exposes myths, and sets a bold agenda to strengthen families and protect children.
