Exploring the stark income inequality in the U.S., the book delves into the vast wealth disparity that leaves many households struggling despite a high national income. It highlights the dramatic contrast between CEO salaries, which soared to over $11 million in 2010, and the median household income for African Americans, which sits at just over $32,000. The narrative questions the systemic factors contributing to this divide, prompting readers to reflect on the implications of such economic disparities in society.
