Edward-John Bottomley volg die verhaal van wit armoede in Suid-Afrika, van die 19de eeu toe die kategorie 'armblanke' eers geskep is.Die kerk en regering het armblankes probeer 'red' as deel van die apartheidsplan, want wit armoede kon lei na rasse-integrasie; vandag reageer politici weer op verskillende maniere op dié verskynsel. 'n Vars blik op 'n ou geskiedenis, met implikasies vir die hede.
Edward-John Bottomley traces the history of poor whites – and especially the Afrikaans-speakers – in South Africa. From the late 19th Century, to the inquests on white poverty in the early 20th Century to the apartheid government's response to this grouping of people, they have always been seen as a special problem to be solved.
