Stuck

In "Stuck," historian and journalist Yoni Appelbaum explores the decline of America's once-celebrated mobility and opportunity, a shift that has increasingly confined individuals to their circumstances based on wealth and location. Through a rigorous examination of historical zoning laws and discriminatory practices, Appelbaum reveals how these forces have restricted movement and perpetuated poverty across generations. This enlightening debut not only uncovers the societal implications of these changes but also proposes practical solutions to revive the spirit of mobility that defined America for two centuries.
