| Description: |
This documentary exposes the culture of poverty in the USA where more than 34 million people struggle daily to survive. Rather than portraying despair, this video is a journey of hope relating diverse stories from migrant farm laborers in the fields of Oregon to ex-convicts on the streets of Los Angels, from drought-relief initiatives along the Rio Grande to welfare-to-work successes in the South Bronx. Among the People, presents poignant, compelling and heartening stories of how grassroots groups and individuals together with the Catholic Campaign for Human Development are attacking the causes of poverty together in order to find long-term solutions to this pervasive social injustice. |
