Riassunto

Historian Hopkins narrates her social worker grandfather's role in the political and cultural currents that led to the Social Security Act of 1935, the bedrock of the US welfare system. She reveals his commitment to the ideal of government responsibility for impoverished Americans, his advocacy and administration of work relief and widows' pensions in New York City, and his contributions to welfare legislation during the New Deal years.
