Book Synopsis Spiritualizing the Poitical Without Politicizing Religion: R. Sargent Shriver's Leadership of the "War on Poverty" by : Robert Thomas Joseph
Book excerpt: In early 1964, Lyndon B. Johnson declared his administration's "unconditional war on poverty in America," urging Congress and the American people to join with him in the effort. As part of the War on Poverty, Congress later that year passed the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 (EOA). It created an Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) that would be headed by R. Sargent Shriver.
