Examines how twenty-six poverty-stricken African American men from Chicago view their prospects for getting ahead. This book documents their definitions of good jobs and the good life - and their beliefs about whether and how these can be attained. It reveals how these men have experienced varying degrees of exposure to more-privileged Americans.
