I'm writing an essay for school on the effects of wealth inequality on a national level (the US), a state level (Michigan), and a local level (Detroit). I hope to use multiple sources with multiple viewpoints and have picked out a few books so far (Nickled and Dimed and Capital in the Twenty-First Century). Are there any books/documentaries/pamphlets I should check out to help my research?

for each of eleven different health and social problems: physical health, mental health, drug abuse, education, imprisonment, obesity, social mobility, trust and community life, violence, teenage pregnancies, and child well-being, outcomes are significantly worse in more unequal rich countries.
