Photos: One Community Reads: An Evening with Matthew Desmond
Citizens across Northeast Ohio joined together this winter to read Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City. As part of this inaugural One Community Reads effort, The City Club partnered with Cuyahoga County's nine public library systems, Playhouse Square and Cuyahoga County Executive Armond Budish to welcome Pulitzer Prize Winner Matthew Desmond for a free public program at the KeyBank State Theatre.
Desmond discussed the book and how the trends and forces at the heart of his research are shaping our own communities here in Northeast Ohio.
