Race and the Undeserving Poor - Professor Robbie (Johns Hopkins University) Shilliam - Bog

A major new work that charts the historical development of a postcolonial settlement that has given rise to a racialized distintion between the "deserving" and "undeserving" poor, the latest incarnation of which is a distinction between a deserving, neglected white working class and "others" who are undeserving, not indigenous, and not white.
