Abstract: One of the United States great promises is that all children will be given the opportunity to work to achieve a comfortable standard of living. That promise has faded profoundly for children who grow up in poverty, particularly black and Hispanic children, and many of the deepening fault lines in the social order are traceable to this disparity. In recent years the promise has also begun to fade for children of the middle class. Education and hard work, once steady paths to economic success, no longer lead as far as they once did. But that doesnt have to be the case, as the author shows that we can provide true opportunity to all children, insuring them against a lifetime of inequality. When we do, the walls dividing the country by race, ethnicity, and wealth will begin to crumble
