Ray provides a refreshing analysis of the challenges facing economically marginalized youth of color. . . . The Making of a Teenage Service Class has significant implications for family scholars, practitioners, and educators. It reminds family scholars and practitioners to pay attention to the intricacy of family dynamics and the importance of not assuming that everyone in a family shares the same experiences, has the same needs or interests, or responds the same way in the face of poverty. * Journal of Family Theory and Review * Ray uses . . . details to reveal how deeply life is colored by poverty and how desperately these young people want to believe they can succeed. * American Journal of Sociology *
