Scholars Question Explanations and Solutions to Latino Poverty.

Rodriguez, Roberto

Black Issues in Higher Education, v10 n11 p18-20 Jul 29 1993

A new policy study finds that Latinos are the ethnic/racial group with the least amount of education and highest labor force participation. It concludes that more education would decrease Latino poverty. Suggested solutions include equalizing educational attainment, eliminating employment discrimination, making work more rewarding, guaranteeing affordable housing. (MSE)
