Videography ©Natalie Smith Voiceover done by the author, Matthew Desmond About EVICTED In this brilliant, heartbreaking book, Matthew Desmond (Harvard sociologist and MacArthur “Genius”) takes us into the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee to tell the story of eight families on the edge—All are spending almost everything they have on rent, and all have fallen behind. Based on years of embedded fieldwork and painstakingly gathered data, EVICTED transforms our understanding of extreme poverty and economic exploitation while providing fresh ideas for solving a devastating, uniquely American problem. Its unforgettable scenes of hope and loss remind us of the centrality of home, without which nothing else is possible.
