Poverty is an issue that affects a VERY large quantity of people worldwide. There are some areas that are more affected by poverty, in fact, 9.6% of the world's population, is impoverished. That is nearly 1/10 of the entire world! In multiple ethnic groups, poverty is greater than in others. For example, with whites, poverty doesn't affect them as much. However, with African Americans, poverty seems more usual. The most impoverished countries are the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zimbabwe, and Burundi. There isn't much we can do to solve this issue, except raise awareness to the larger authorities, and see if they could do something about it. I believe that if we can raise more awareness about this matter, hopefully our President could maybe try to do something about it as well.
