Poverty, by America book cover

Please join us for an online Zoom discussion of:

Poverty, by America  by Matthew Desmond

The United States, the richest country on earth, has more poverty than any other advanced democracy. Why? Elegantly written and fiercely argued, this compassionate book gives us new ways of thinking about a morally urgent problem. It also helps us imagine solutions.

The Waianae Public Library Book Club reads a variety of fiction and nonfiction titles selected yearly by the members.  We meet on the 3rd Wednesdays online via Zoom at 6:00pm- 7:30pm.  If you are interested in joining, please contact Sheryl Lynch at the library 808-697-7868 or email Sheryl Lynch.
