A Blight and an Eyesore




I went to Tent City yesterday, took the footage of the bulldozers, and recorded Steve Jr's interview with Matt, a resident whose home is marked for demolition.

I implore all my readers to share this as often as they can. Lakewood's leaders may believe that demolishing Tent City is a "victory," but until Lakewood ends its corrupt, separatist, discriminatory practices against the poor, the issue of homelessness will not disappear.

Peace and love to you all!

Heartbreaking News...



There are times when even a writer cannot find words.

But fortunately, other Tent City supporters were able to get pictures – pictures of Lakewood officials marking tents and other structures for demolition.

And the bulldozers are assembling tomorrow at 8am.

The dismantling of Tent City has begun, and my heart is breaking…will update with more info as it becomes available.
