Related: About this forumNew Bernie 2020 video, "Trapped", focuses on rural poverty in the South
Not sure if this is an ad to be aired on television or just circulated around the internet, but here it is. It focuses on a family in rural Alabama who bought a mobile home and experienced real estate devaluation due to nearby industrial development (likely targeting the impoverished community because, hey, they're poor, right?). It then goes on to tie that family's experience the broader issue of poverty throughout the country. This is what we're fighting for.
