Poverty In America
Poverty in America is a slideshow final I did to bring awareness to the rising issue of Poverty for one of my Human Service classes. Again, I hope to demonstrate my ability and dedication.
Poverty in america
This document discusses poverty in America, defining generational and situational poverty. Generational poverty is being in poverty for two generations or longer due to socioeconomic factors, while situational poverty is for a shorter time due to life circumstances like death, illness, or divorce. Schools and businesses often operate from middle-class norms not understood by those in generational poverty. To move out of poverty requires education, relationships, finding a vision or goal, developing key relationships, or discovering a talent or skill. Poverty negatively impacts children's development and life outcomes. Relationships are key to achieving success and overcoming the effects of generational poverty.
lacking education due to poverty
This document discusses poverty and its causes in developing countries. It notes that developing countries often have low standards of democratic government, poor industrialization, inadequate social programs, and few human rights guarantees. Poverty is defined as lacking basic necessities like food, shelter, access to healthcare, jobs, and security. Over 1 billion people live on less than $1.25 per day. There are also large wealth divides, as a few wealthy individuals control a disproportionate percentage of global resources. The document calls for achieving goals like universal primary education, access to water and sanitation, and reducing poverty and child mortality by 2015.
Economics Poverty Lesson
This document outlines the key points about poverty that learners should understand after a lesson. It defines poverty and differentiates between absolute and relative poverty. Chronic poverty is discussed as poverty that is passed down through generations. Characteristics of poverty mentioned include those living in rural areas, women, low levels of education, and high population growth. The effects of poverty discussed are limited life choices, negative health impacts, limited economic opportunities, decreased productivity, and increased domestic violence. Learners are assigned an activity to analyze poverty in their communities and suggest solutions.
Poverty
Poverty is defined as lacking basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothing. It is caused by a lack of money, natural disasters, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and issues like drugs and alcohol. The major causes of extreme poverty are hunger, lack of access to healthcare, limited education, and insufficient clean water. Billions of people worldwide live in poverty, with millions dying each year due to lack of food, nutrition, and preventable health issues.
Poverty
Poverty is defined as a lack of money that prevents one from affording basic human needs like food, shelter, and healthcare, affecting over 1.7 billion people worldwide. Some key causes of poverty include debt, corruption, overpopulation, and weak economies. Poverty negatively impacts people's health, access to education, housing stability, and can even cause skilled workers to leave their home country in search of better opportunities elsewhere.
POVERTY
This document discusses poverty, including its definition, types, causes, and effects. It also examines strategies to reduce poverty. Poverty is defined as a lack of material goods or money. There are two main types: absolute poverty involving basic needs, and relative poverty comparing living standards within a society. Major causes include lack of education, disease, and limited economic opportunities. Effects are on both individuals, like poor health, and societies, such as less economic growth. Recommended solutions involve both short-term actions like job creation, and long-term investments in education, healthcare, and sustainable development. The ultimate goal is to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty.

Poverty
Poverty is defined as a situation where one lacks adequate resources or means of livelihood. It can be experienced individually but commonly involves feelings of powerlessness and lack of access to resources. Poverty has several dimensions such as lack of livelihood strategies, inability to maintain social relations due to lack of resources, feelings of insecurity and frustration. Theories of poverty include Malthus' theory that overpopulation is the main cause and Marx's theory that exploitation of workers by capitalists leads to poverty. Causes of poverty include sickness, unemployment, poor income, natural disasters, and unequal distribution of resources while impacts include malnutrition, child labor, crime, and failure to develop socially. Addressing poverty involves social welfare programs, employment
Causes and Effects of Poverty

The causes of poverty discussed include theories that the poor have little concern for the future or engage in self-defeating behaviors. The effects of poverty on children include higher rates of health problems, accidents, and missed school. Poverty also increases stress levels in families. The cycle of poverty refers to how poverty can span generations as those in poverty lack the resources to escape it.
Homeless in america
Thank you for the presentation on homelessness in America and Texas. I appreciate you providing an overview of the key issues and proposed solutions.
Causes and solutions to poverty
This document discusses the causes and effects of poverty. It identifies overpopulation, lack of resources like food and water, and illiteracy as causes of poverty.

Immigration
The Advocates for Human Rights is pleased
to involve your class or community group in a day to learn about immigration to the United States.
Problems of inequality & power
Racism exists when one ethnic group dominates or seeks to eliminate another based on perceived hereditary differences. Throughout history, racism has influenced wars, slavery, religions and laws. The document discusses the history of racism from the persecution of Jewish people in Europe in the 13th century to the Nazis targeting Jews in the 1930s-1940s. It also examines the causes of racism such as ignorance, fear, and stereotypes. The document outlines different types of racism and problems caused by racism like conflict, violence and mental health issues. It concludes with solutions like education, acceptance, and discouraging racism.
Teen Pregnancy
Teen pregnancy is influenced by several factors including a high rate of sexual activity, lack of education about contraception, limited access to birth control, and feelings of invincibility. Teen mothers face health risks such as anemia, high blood pressure, and premature birth. Their babies also face risks including low birth weight. In the US, about 1000 teens become pregnant each year resulting in over 500,000 births and 400,000 abortions. Teen mothers are more likely to have children who become teen parents as well.
Global Poverty
Global poverty remains a significant challenge, with over 1 billion people living on less than $1.25 per day according to recent UN estimates. The UN Millennium Development Goals aimed to reduce extreme poverty by half by 2015, but progress has stalled due to the global financial crisis and food insecurity issues. Achieving the MDGs will require increased funding from developed nations, sustainable economic growth in developing regions, and coordinated international efforts to address issues like climate change and pandemic diseases. While the goals may now be difficult to meet by the 2015 deadline, with commitment and action poverty can still be significantly reduced on a global scale.
Marcus garvey
This document provides an overview of Marcus Garvey's life and accomplishments. It discusses his childhood in Jamaica, his move to the United States where he founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and his Back to Africa movement advocating for black empowerment and black nationalism. It also describes the Black Star Line shipping company he created to facilitate transportation for African Americans back to Africa, which ultimately went bankrupt contributing to his decline. The document concludes with some tributes given to Garvey for his work advocating for black rights and empowerment.
Homeless Presentation
The document discusses programs and services for the homeless population. It begins by addressing common stereotypes about homelessness, then defines what constitutes being homeless according to HUD. Some key statistics are provided about the number of homeless individuals nationally. It also discusses the leading causes of homelessness and where homeless people often live. The majority of the document describes different therapeutic recreation programs offered through Mecklenburg County Park and Rec for homeless individuals of all ages, including goals of each program. These programs address needs like health and wellness, creative expression, mentoring, and building life skills.
Poverty Powerpoint
The document discusses poverty globally and in Darfur, Sudan specifically. It notes that half the world lives on less than $2 per day, nearly a billion people can't read or write, and 1.8 million children die from diarrhea each year due to lack of basic healthcare in poor countries. In Darfur, two million people are hungry, 400,000 have died, and 10,000 continue to die each month as people flee violence. The World Food Programme is working to address hunger among refugees by providing food donations.
Homeless ppt (1)
Homelessness refers to people without permanent housing such as a house or apartment. While homelessness has existed since the 1640s, it was exacerbated by cuts to housing programs in the 1980s. Common causes of homelessness include loss of income, domestic violence, mental illness, and substance abuse. Those experiencing homelessness often have health problems, substance abuse issues, and higher rates of crime and suicide. Services that can help the homeless population include employment assistance, housing, mental health and substance abuse treatment, food banks, and shelters. However, providers face challenges like lack of shelter space and funding as well as clients' lack of skills or untreated conditions. Effective interventions include referrals to services, assistance obtaining IDs, and motivational
ppt for poverty
Poverty deprives people of basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothes. It is caused by factors such as lack of education, natural disasters, lack of money, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and spending on addictions like drugs and alcohol. Poverty leads to high mortality rates, increased health risks, hampered childhood development, lack of education, and increased conflict. Over 1.4 billion people live on less than $1.25 per day, and poverty is responsible for millions of deaths each year, especially among women and children in developing countries. Poverty is measured using both relative and absolute standards related to income levels and access to resources needed for basic survival.
Poverty in the UK
This document outlines the tasks and criteria for a unit on poverty and social inequality. It includes two tasks: 1) complete a table on social stratification and 2) write a 1250-word essay critically examining explanations of social inequality and poverty and analyzing related research evidence. Several websites are provided for research. The learning outcomes are to outline the historical context of poverty and theoretical perspectives on approaches to tackling poverty. The deadline for the unit assessment is January 13, 2014.
Overpopulation
Overpopulation is defined as the condition where the human population exceeds the Earth's carrying capacity. It is a leading driver of global issues like hunger, desertification, and species depletion. Some of the key causes of overpopulation include poverty, lack of education, declining death rates and increasing birth rates, lack of family planning, and lack of access to contraceptives. The effects of overpopulation include increased environmental pollution, depletion of natural resources, and shortage of food and water to sustain the growing population. Proposed solutions to overpopulation are improved access to education, family planning services, and contraceptives to allow individuals to make informed choices about family size.
Poverty
The document discusses poverty globally and in specific regions and countries. It begins by defining poverty and providing statistics on its global prevalence. It then examines poverty levels and causes in developing countries, Haiti, Africa, and the United States. Several charitable organizations that provide aid to reduce poverty are also mentioned. Theories like conflict theory and structural functionalism are used to explain causes and functions of poverty in societies.
Poverty Line Crises
This document discusses poverty, including its definition, causes, effects, and measures to address it. Poverty is defined as the inability to meet basic needs and standards of living. Key causes discussed include a nation's history of colonialism or conflict, inequality, debt, and vulnerability to natural disasters.

It provides statistics on poverty rates in Pakistan and solutions like employment generation, government spending transparency, and developing agriculture and industry.
The Social Construction of "Race"
This presentation investigates how notion of “race” is socially constructed. It arose concurrently with the advent of European exploration as a justification and rationale for conquest and domination of the globe beginning in the 15th century of the Common Era. Therefore, “race” is an historical, “scientific,” and biological myth. It is an idea. Geneticists tell us that there is often more variability within a given so-called “race” than between “races,” and that there are no essential genetic markers linked specifically to “race.”
The Other War: Combating Global Poverty
This presentation is about ending poverty in our time. It is about making the right choices that can lead to a much safer world based on a true reverence and respect for human life.
This presentation brings to our attention the daily struggles for survival, and the vast number of impoverished people around the world who lose that struggle. We attempt to demonstrate that all parts of the world have a chance to join an age of unprecedented prosperity, building on global science, technology and markets. However, one can also see that certain parts of the world are caught in a downward spiral of impoverishment, hunger and disease. We demonstrate this by means of case studies.
This presentation attempts at outlining why some countries fail to thrive and how the developed world can assist the rest of humanity get a foothold on the ladder of development.
Poverty slideshow
Poverty deprives people of basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothes. It is caused by a lack of education, natural disasters, lack of money, greed, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and addictions like drugs and alcohol. The harsh truth is that over 3 billion people live on less than $2.50 a day, 1 in 2 children live in poverty, and 22,000 children die daily due to poverty. Solutions include reducing war, increasing government assistance, and promoting education and opportunities through donations and aid.
Poverty policy issues
This document summarizes the history of poverty in America from the industrialization era to modern times. It discusses how poverty is measured officially using poverty thresholds that vary by family size and composition. The document also outlines government assistance programs like Medicaid, Medicare, CHIP, and the Affordable Care Act, as well as initiatives like Promise Zones to help reduce poverty. Maps show higher poverty rates exist in more populated areas and cities.

A Guide Understanding Poverty In America
This document discusses poverty in America through statistics and analysis on topics such as income inequality, wealth distribution, education disparities, the criminal justice system, and funding biases that disproportionately impact minority communities and the poor. It argues that current civil rights narratives and the majority of charitable resources focus on upper-middle class issues rather than addressing the systemic roots of poverty. The document advocates for connecting people, resources, and technology to better serve those in need.
Social class in_the_united_states
Social class is defined based on wealth, power, and prestige. There are generally considered to be six social classes in the United States ranging from the upper class with incomes over $1,000,000 to the underclass with incomes under $10,000. One's social class impacts many life outcomes such as health, behaviors, marriage, and likelihood of incarceration. While social mobility is possible, it is often limited between generations and for disadvantaged groups such as women and racial minorities.
Causes of world poverty
The document discusses different types of natural disasters and their impacts. It notes that earthquakes are the deadliest natural disasters, killing many through collapsing buildings and fires. It also states that flooding is the most expensive type of disaster, with flood damage costs reaching hundreds of billions of euros annually. Additionally, at least 500 million people live near active volcanoes, which can bury areas with ash and lava during eruptions.
The Experience of Poverty in an Unequal Society - Sarah Welford
Sarah Welford, Policy and Parliamentary Officer from Poverty Alliance, talks about the experience of poverty in today's unequal society.
The Whose Economy? seminars, organised by Oxfam Scotland and the University of the West of Scotland, brought together experts to look at recent changes in the Scottish economy and their impact on Scotland's most vulnerable communities.
Held over winter and spring 2010-11 in Edinburgh, Inverness, Glasgow and Stirling, the series posed the question of what economy is being created in Scotland and, specifically, for whom?

15 Poverty Discourse
The document discusses different perspectives on poverty and proposes that people are not inherently poor but are made poor due to faults in existing systems. It argues that poverty is a result of lack of education, awareness, and proper leadership. It calls for reforms to systems and leadership with visions for nation building to empower people and utilize a country's potential for development.
Leaders and Followers: civil society giving voice to the poor
This document provides biographical information about Dr. Thamsanqa Elisha Nxumalo, including his educational and professional background. It then discusses concepts related to leadership, governance, and the role of civil society in giving voice to the poor and holding governments accountable. The document poses the question of whether and how organizations can work with governments while still maintaining the ability to hold them accountable. It outlines an activity for participants to brainstorm ideas on limitations to cooperation between civil society and government.
Craetive Project Powerpoint
The document discusses food insecurity and the working poor in America. It finds that 48.1 million Americans experience food insecurity, including 6.9 million households with very low food security. Food insecurity disproportionately impacts households with children, especially those headed by single parents, as well as black and Hispanic households. The working poor, who work at least 27 weeks per year but remain in poverty, make up 13% of black and Hispanic workers and 16% of part-time workers. The document also profiles a boy named Elias who attends a community center where most families live close to the poverty line and struggle with adequate nutrition.
Civil Society Participation in the 2011 Commission for Social Development
Civil Society Participation in the 2011 Commission for Social DevelopmentDepartment of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA)
This document provides an overview of civil society participation in the 49th session of the UN Commission for Social Development in 2011. It describes how NGOs were involved through a Civil Society Forum on the theme of poverty eradication, and in the Commission's discussions on poverty trends, social protection policies, and issues related to groups like persons with disabilities, youth, older persons, and families. The report aims to guide new NGOs on engaging with the UN on social development issues.Usa poverty
Poverty is defined as subpar living conditions compared to the surrounding area and is subject to change over time. The US defines poverty through an annual ratio issued by the Census Bureau that accounts for inflation but has not been substantially updated since the 1960s. It is calculated using USDA and food expenditure data. Critics argue it does not adequately capture factors like assets and costs of living. There are differences between Democratic and Republican views on how to address poverty, with Democrats favoring more government assistance programs and Republicans preferring less government intervention and believing individuals are responsible for their economic situations. Current policies under the Republican-led House propose deep cuts to programs assisting low-income Americans.
UN Day of Families 2011
Celebrations of the United Nations Day of Families organized by Universal Peace Federation chapters, May 15, 2011
The Universal Peace Federation affirms the value of the family as the core unit of society. The family has formed the basis for communities, societies and civilizations throughout the ages. Virtually all the world’s religions teach the sacred value of marriage and family. The family is the school of love. It is also the school of virtue, ethics and citizenship.
The cohesion and stability of the family are prerequisites for a healthy and stable society. Conversely, the breakdown of the family contributes to a wide range of social problems. By strengthening the family, we can build a stronger base of social capital that will enhance the overall quality of life for everyone.
The natural family is grounded in marriage, the cornerstone of the family. Children benefit from having loving parents, a mother and father, who are committed to the well-being of their sons and daughters. There is no greater joy and no greater responsibility than that of raising boys and girls to become mature, socially-engaged and successful men and women. This is the role and responsibility of parents and grandparents.
Traditional marriage and family are being challenged in a variety of ways at this time in history, by poverty, migration, displacement, urbanization, conflict, disease, etc. In addition, some question the value of traditional marriage and family. Others seek to redefine them. Despite these challenges, men and women the world over still aspire to build strong, loving, lasting marriages and, as parents, to raise children who prosper and flourish.
Gdit 819 social justice phase iii
The document discusses the effects of poverty on childhood language and literacy development. It notes that language is key to literacy learning and that exposure to words helps develop knowledge. Poverty can negatively impact early language skills and language stimulation children receive. Research shows a gap in the number of words, variety of words, and time spent with reading that children from low-income homes hear compared to children from higher-income homes. This language gap can be detected as early as 18 months of age. Strategies used in high-performing, high-poverty schools include effective leadership, engaging parents and the community, having high expectations, focusing on reading, aligning the curriculum, using data, building instructional capacity, and optimizing time
poverty as a challange
The document discusses different aspects and definitions of poverty. It defines poverty as not having enough money to meet basic needs like food, shelter and clothing. The World Bank further describes poverty as hunger, lack of shelter, inability to access healthcare or education. The document also discusses different methods used to measure and define poverty, including relative poverty based on income comparisons between regions, and absolute poverty based on minimum calorie intake and consumption levels. It notes several groups that are most vulnerable to poverty in India, including scheduled tribes, casual and agricultural laborers, and scheduled castes. Several government schemes aimed at poverty alleviation are also outlined.
Closing the funding gap edu363 final
The document discusses the issue of unequal funding between schools in wealthy versus impoverished areas in the United States. It notes that schools in low-income areas often receive less funding than schools in wealthier districts, due to reliance on local property taxes for school funding. This creates inequities where low-income students have fewer resources and opportunities compared to their wealthier peers, perpetuating the cycle of poverty. The document proposes implementing a policy of equal distribution of excess funds between all schools to create more equitable access to education resources.

CONCLUSION
Social Class In The Us
Social class is defined in different ways by Marx and Weber. Marx saw social class as defined by access to resources and means of production, dividing society into owners and workers. Weber defined social class based on wealth, power, and prestige, seeing a hierarchy with different levels. In the U.S., income and wealth are highly concentrated among the top 20% of the population, while the bottom 20% receive a very small share, a distribution that has changed little over time. Social class has consequences for factors like health, education, politics, and crime, and mobility between classes is limited. Poverty disproportionately impacts certain groups and persisting poverty can span generations.
The 'Broken' Society: Stigmatising Poverty and Disadvantage? - Gerry Mooney
Dr Gerry Mooney, from the Open University, talks about the stigmatisation of poverty and disadvantage.
Stephen Boyd, Assistant Secretary of the Scottish Trade Unions Congress, talks about how the Scottish economy works.
The Whose Economy? seminars, organised by Oxfam Scotland and the University of the West of Scotland, brought together experts to look at recent changes in the Scottish economy and their impact on Scotland's most vulnerable communities.
Held over winter and spring 2010-11 in Edinburgh, Inverness, Glasgow and Stirling, the series posed the question of what economy is being created in Scotland and, specifically, for whom?

Poverty leads to lack of access to resources in schools and poor nutrition and health issues. It also discusses how poverty stresses families and children, impacting them socially and emotionally. The essay examines different definitions of poverty and approaches to defining and measuring it.
Reducing Poverty Essay
This document discusses poverty from historical and future perspectives. It outlines four dimensions of poverty: material limit, psychological damage, social exclusion, and political powerlessness. Historically, capitalism led to more poverty as serfs were cast out of feudal systems and had to find work. While some gains have been made against absolute poverty, inequality remains a huge problem. To fully address poverty, both economic and political systems will need significant reform to provide justice, opportunity and basic needs for all people.

It focuses on examining wealth and poverty in terms of income, which is readily available data. Income inequality is the underlying issue in poverty, especially in developed nations. The document defines poverty as "the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions." Poverty can be a relative condition depending on social and economic context.
Minority Groups In Canada
This document discusses the importance of minority groups in Canada having strong family and community structures. It notes that minority families are often closer-knit due to facing discrimination and not having others who share their values and customs. Growing up, the author found it difficult to practice their religion until their religious community expanded in their school. Having others of the same background provides acceptance, understanding and reliance that strengthens family bonds for minority groups.

Class #23
The document discusses access to healthcare as a social justice and Catholic issue. It notes that the US spends more than double per capita on healthcare than other industrialized countries but has worse health outcomes, and that life expectancy varies greatly between US counties and is strongly predicted by wealth. Children in poverty are seven times more likely to have poor health. The Affordable Care Act aims to expand access but will still leave many uninsured. Trinity Health is a large Catholic healthcare system that serves patients regardless of ability to pay.
Learning and Development: Preventing Generational Poverty | Economic opportun...
The persistence of poverty in America and the dramatic increase of economic inequality in recent decades have garnered growing public awareness. Isn't the United States at least a land of economic opportunity, in which those who start lower on the economic ladder have a reasonable expectation that they, or their children, might advance into the middle class? Or are we at risk of being a caste society, in which multiple generations are trapped in a cycle of relative deprivation, while others inherit the security of a “gilded” lifestyle?
Important recent research by social scientists has shown that intergenerational economic mobility in the United States is low compared with many other wealthy countries, and that opportunity is unevenly distributed across the country. In this presentation, Professor Sundstrom will summarize some of these findings, including what they have to say about opportunity in the Silicon Valley region. He will provide an overview of the potential causes of intergenerational persistence in income status, and the implications for community and policy strategies for increasing opportunity.
Essay Of Poverty
The document discusses two articles that have different approaches to defining and framing poverty. The first article by McMillian aims to redefine poverty for a general audience by using simple language and a personal appeal. The second article by Fram et al. focuses on explaining the achievement gap in southern schools for an expert social work audience using specialized language and resources. It examines how the articles have different targeted audiences and approaches to discussing factors like race in relation to poverty.

This document provides an analysis of the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA) of 1997 and its impact on African American families and children in the child welfare system. It summarizes that while ASFA aimed to promote child safety and permanency, it has disproportionately affected African American families by increasing the number of African American children in foster care and expediting the termination of parental rights. The document analyzes national statistics that show African American children are overrepresented in the foster care system compared to their percentage of the general population. It argues that ASFA has not adequately considered the role of racism and poverty in disproportionately affecting African American families within the child welfare system.Latagia Copeland-Tyronce's Social Welfare Policy Paper 1

Poverty in America: what? why? and how?
- 1. POVERTY IN AMERICA WHAT? WHY? AND HOW? By Latagia copeland-Tyronce B.S.,A.S.
- 2. WHAT IS POVERTY? • Add your first bullet point here • Add your second bullet point here • Add your third bullet point here
- 3. POVERTY IS “Poverty is hunger. Poverty is lack of shelter. Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not having access to school and not knowing how to read. Poverty is not having a job, is fear for the future, living one day at a time. • Poverty has many faces, changing from place to place and across time, and has been described in many ways. Most often, poverty is a situation people want to escape. So poverty is a call to action -- for the poor and the wealthy alike -- a call to change the world so that many more may have enough to eat, adequate shelter, access to education and health, protection from violence, and a voice in what happens in their communities.” • ~The World Bank Organization
- 4. THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL IN AMERICA IS…… •$40,890 for a family of 8 (in 48 states and D.C.) • $51,120 for a family of 8 in Alaska • $47,010 for a family of 8 in Hawaii
- 5. WHY IS POVERTY STILL AN ISSUE IN AMERICA? For several reasons, including the following…..
- 9. ACCUMULATION OF WEALTH AT THE TOP
- 10. SOCIAL ISSUES (RACE AND CLASS RELATED)
- 11. HOW CAN POVERTY IN AMERICA BE ELIMINATED? There are several things that we can do, including the following….
- 14. INVEST IN AFFORDABLE, HIGH- QUALITY CHILD CARE AND EARLY EDUCATION
- 15. REFORM THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AND ENACT POLICIES THAT SUPPORT SUCCESSFUL RE-ENTRY

- 18. IN CONCLUSION As a person who grew up in poverty and have both seen and experienced poverty my entire life, this is a subject that is very close to my heart. I hope that this presentation provides both information and a sense of empowerment to those effected; and more importantly, to those not effected. poverty is indeed a global problem not just an American problem. It is a problem that I pray someday is eradicated.
