Humanities Homework Help

I’m working on a sociology question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

For this weeks discussion I would like you to discuss the topic of the Feminization of Poverty.  What does it mean? Why is it important to study and understand?  

What other factors such race and ethnicity fit into the argument or does it all?

Just a brief discussion on the topic. I have included a link to a specific story, Tammy’s Story, as part of the People Like Us Series. There is also an update to the linked clip as well.
