Election 2024: The future of MD's third congressional district

After four grueling months in the summer of 1787, most, but not all, of the framers of the US Constitution signed the document that has been the fundament of our government ever since.

However, Midday's guest today has written a book that asserts the constitution itself poses a threat to our republic.

No Democracy Lasts Forever: How the Constitution Threatens the United States is a new book by Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of the University of California, Berkeley School of Law.

How can the United States be the home of widespread, debilitating poverty while simultaneous being one of the wealthiest countries on Earth?

This is the question that confronts readers early in sociologist Matthew Desmond's new book, Poverty, By America. We must look beyond the poor to answer this questions, Desmond writes. To understand the causes of poverty, Americans living lives of privilege and plenty must examine themselves.

Desmond joins Midday to talk about his book, and the ways the country's affluent keep poor people poor. What can everyday people do to help and change society?

We do not need to outsmart poverty, sociologist Matthew Desmond says. Just out-hate it.
