COVID-19's Impact on Low-Income Workers

Description (Dublin Core)

This article discusses the struggles that low- income workers face because of the pandemic. Low-income workers are struggling to pay rent, losing their jobs, having use money from their saving accounts, and more. The article also provides graphs with demographics that consist of race, gender, and income groups. These graphs are useful in order to make comparisons. This article fills an archival silence and amplify the voices of marginalized groups because it highlights the struggle that these groups are facing. The silence may be intentional. The media is covering billionaires like Jeff Bezos who are only getting richer during the pandemic, instead we must focus on the average person/working class because they contribute to the overall success of our economy.
