Housing/Gentrification

Q: So tell us, how does the po'lice interact with us folks on the street here?

My name is Brian Jones. I'm with Open Table. Supporting this event today, and I'm glad to share back. Homeless was hard for me. I didn't have nowhere to go, no feelings. I was going place to place to lay my head. Cried many nights, praying to God for a way out.

I want to make known some of the work that we're doing here to fight poverty. My name is Denzel Caldwell, I'm one of the co-founders of Nashville Economic Justice Alliance, along with Howard Allen. We're here to reclaim this land.

Everything is a Waiting List

I was on my way home from middle school one day. WHAT! A sheriff deputy is at my house with a pink lockout notice on the door and my mom's in tears. What to do, another homeless family in SF. My mother has been on the Section 8 waiting list for years.

My name is Sharena Diamond Thomas, and I'm informing everybody of what's  going on in my neck of the woods, East Oakland. I'm dealing with a slum lord.
