UUCLC Film Series

Documentary Film #3 of a six-part series, UUCLC is showing the 30 minute documentary “Project Poverty and Inequality in California”. Even before the economic disruptions caused by COVID-19, far too many Californians were living in poverty. Despite solid economic growth, pockets of vast wealth, and a robust social safety net, California still had the nation’s highest poverty rate, while millions more Californians lived on the edge. Now, that dire situation can only be expected to grow worse. In this documentary, we explore common sense solutions to poverty and inequality, with testimony from an ideologically diverse group of business leaders, social activists, and scholars.
