Christina Cross decisively refutes culture-of-poverty narratives blaming family structure for persistent racial inequality. Marshaling extensive longitudinal data, Cross shows that Black kids raised in two-parent homes still fare worse than white counterparts, inviting a wholesale rethinking of the logics underlying US social-welfare policy.
