I was outside Walgreens in Durham, NC and there was a homeless woman of color who wanted to talk to me. I gave her $4.00. We discussed how impossible it was to rent shelter when you are not working.
Those of you who think there is shelter for the poor or low-income housing really need to examine what you think you know about poverty.
She immediately went into Walgreens with this vast wealth. What did she want to buy? Drugs? Alcohol? Food? None of these.
She went to the greeting card section to buy a birthday card for her mother, who had passed away years ago. It was a tradition of hers.
