Why Is William Ryan Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, William J. Ryan, Jr. was a psychologist, civil rights activist and author. He is best known for his criticism of "blaming the victim", which was first published in his 1971 book of the same name. Ryan's work is considered a major structuralist rebuttal to the Moynihan Report. Moynihan's report placed most of the blame for African-American poverty rates on the rise of single-parent households, which Ryan vigorously rejected as blaming victims for their victimhood.
