since the eve o f W o rld W ar II. The

The comm ittee found that the data
and analyses it examined throw
“ serious doubt” on the com m only
accepted notion that a self-perpetu­
ating “ culture o f poverty” exists in
the black com m unity. The chroni­
cally poor arc a m in o rity o f poor
people in general, including blacks;
attitudes toward work and the desire
to succeed arc not very different among
the poor and non-poor, the co m m it­
tee said.
The comm ittee found instead that
racial barriers and disadvantages
“ persist in blocking black advance­
m ent.”
