Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The text notes that one way poverty is made socially "invisible" is through the use of law enforcement to move the homeless away from visible locations. Political engagement and highlighting successful attempts by the poor to organize may bring attention to poverty, and cultural products such as movies may raise awareness of poverty, but they do not make poverty "invisible."
