Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - A Dream Defaulted explores how the student loan crisis disproportionately affects Black borrowers and why rising student debt is both a cause and consequence of social inequality in the United States.

Based on more than five years of ongoing qualitative and quantitative research, this incisive work illustrates how the student loan system has not benefited all students equally. Through interviews with borrowers, the authors illuminate the ways in which racial disparities compounded by centuries of institutionalized racism affect who has college access, how and why people take on debt, and who has the ability to repay student loan debt after leaving college.
