Poverty, Politics and Profit (full film) | FRONTLINE

submitted by Marvin's Underground Evening Lectures on 12/06/21 1

FRONTLINE and NPR investigate the billions spent on affordable housing, and why so few get the help they need. This journalism is made possible by viewers like you. Support your local PBS station here: www.pbs.org/donate In a nine-month investigation that takes FRONTLINE and NPR from Dallas to Miami, NPR’s Laura Sullivan and FRONTLINE’s Rick Young find that just one in four households eligible for Section 8 assistance are getting it, and the nation’s signature low-income housing construction program is costing more and producing less. The team investigates the inseparability of race and housing programs in America, tracing a legacy of segregation and discrimination that began more than 80 years ago. #Poverty #AffordableHousing #Documentary Love FRONTLINE?
