Bryant – a self-made businessman and founder of the nonprofit Operation HOPE – doesn’t dwell on the data of America’s growing inequality. He focuses instead on opportunities and solutions. If disenfranchised people started businesses, he argues, the US economy would spark to life in new ways. getAbstract recommends this powerful guide to policy makers, activists, NGO leaders and entrepreneurs seeking a new, workable approach to income inequality.
