the folks who live in high poverty neighbors, what elijah anderson calls decent folk. get along with their lives, play by the rules, not get in trouble. and so we used census data to show that community is much more diverse than in the corner and we reported interview information from our respondents, 6 years old, but at age 28 when we talked to them, who had grown up and many followed diverse paths. one of the interesting details is that many of them were working class whites, who were missing from the scene in most urban poverty yet in big cities like baltimore and they provided a really important perspective on what it means to be poor and growing up poor. what you say here is so critical. you say, you have to be open to discovery. that s in your journalism role, academic role and certainly in the policymaker role. tianna gaines-turner, thank you for being here.
