Description

How the Other Half Lives by Jacob A. Riis explores the living conditions of the poor in the tenements of New York City during the late 19th century. Riis uses his background as a journalist and photographer to document the overcrowded and unsanitary conditions that many immigrants and working-class families were forced to endure. Through his investigation, Riis sheds light on the stark disparities between the wealthy and the impoverished, calling attention to the need for social reform and improved living conditions for the city's most vulnerable residents. This classic book serves as a powerful exposé of the harsh realities faced by the marginalized populations of New York City, sparking a national conversation on urban poverty and social justice.
