Poverty Series Session 2
On March 8th, we watched an episode of Morgan Spurlock's 30 Days: Living on Minimum Wage. I though it was interesting seeing a small glimpse into the life of the urban poor. The cost of just walking into the emergency room and having your wrist wrapped up was just ridiculous (almost as ridiculous as how many girls play intramural sports in this scholars program...). How did that father with two or three kids (if my memory serves me correctly) live and support his children while Morgan and his fiance Alex could barely getting by with only themselves? I would think that the episode about a Christian being a Muslim for thirty days would be really interesting and I would suggest having an event devoted to that (I would go to it).
