Summary:
Originally "untitled," these recordings appear to be lectures that Sally Lied gave to a class about poverty (perhaps Upward Bound). She mentions returning to certain topics later in the course, so this may be a recording of the first day of class. The two sides of the recordings are presentations of the same lecture in two separate instances but the content of the lectures is identical, with variation in classroom participation and some examples used. She covers topics that include poverty in the 1930s versus in the 1960s, what groups are poor and why, common identities that intersect with poverty, how to force change, what tools people have to organize and unify to gain power, racism, and the effects of poverty.
