I think it mostly has to do with the "culture of poverty" theory, and self-fulfilling prophecy that because the poor have been ingrained into this culture of feeling helpless and unworthy, they believe there is nothing they can do to help themselves. They are convinced that higher instituions and classes are not looking to help them in their best interests and they continue to feel inferior and powerless.Dominique A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15269753806129651960noreply@blogger.com
