Detailing the contemporary obstacles and battles that marginalized groups must fight, this handbook provides a comprehensive account that enables readers to understand the harmful nature of these issues and how they serve to place and keep marginalized groups at a disadvantage.

The Routledge Handbook on Marginalized Groups in the United States and their Challenges covers the belief systems, social and economic systems, political institutions, and public policies that aim to place and keep marginalized groups at a disadvantage, describing the intractable nature of these barriers, how inequality and inequity persist, why changing the status quo is so difficult, and why efforts to change the status quo seem not to bear results. The chapters in this book assess the cultural controversies and provide case studies to highlight the argument that social and economic systems, political institutions, public policies, and state governments sustain the status quo, offering essential insights into the ways that racism and sexism have pernicious effects on people of color, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, immigrants, people with disabilities, and the poor.
