thank you. when you're when you're young you have a lot of energy and headed because our and i went around painting beggars in the street and i went to the bowery i painted bums sorry. i'm not that political and that. you know to me it's more about. statics you know if i paint black people it's not because i love them or don't love them i find it beautiful i find it easy to paint. it's political. spin city so cooked up by. the mayor. it's like the rich get rich in a plug. it's not too much. how do you full so far down so most.

from me unemployment. and half the deck to me plus my friends. and tell police where your and rita's usually are. live on the street you know something on the last day on a chain station sometime other than a change station when you get cold you know but on cd got a lot of house in the homeless people but the government is not really funding it. no and in a lot of the shelter today be having people rallies down the street because people begin to grate didn't sheltered a good god you got to sleep with one eye open one up close i was in a shelter in one town and a gal like right next to me being john a rabid dog jumped in a no stop go live in shelters is no good that's why you see a lot of homeless people on the street to feel safe. and you see. you know to make

a few dollars and pay somebody to let you stay at night it seems that way you know you say ah so you. know because i'm in an area you know it's not that much but i know you only got one life so i'm going to happen it's going to happen anyway and i just prayed to the lord of don't. i just keep my head up and every day long i've got another shot. that i'll be here in time yeah and that's. when i grew up here in new york in the fifty's and sixty's for instance there were three soup kitchens in new york down the bowery and one in brooklyn today there are twelve hundred and over eight hundred camp trees and other emergency food program that's how the need has grown when they first started this soup kitchen in nineteen eighty one or two or three depending on who you ask and it was an epidemic almost just in the eighty's you couldn't walk down

the street without four people each block asking you for something homelessness was very visible today thirty some odd years later there are more homeless people in new york then there were a ban by almost double and yet you don't see them as much because what the result of the laws and the result of the regulation is just high homelessness not to fix it not to cure it but i mean that's what the results say cities broken windows policies all that stuff that's what the result of that is stuff i almost missed and to make it a crime. and i want to. get it.

i came into jail. they sent me to a program. to have. a go and. look around to put me in a room no no smaller than the jail for six and i believe that's missing that. leads to bad. dreams but on the. tenth man walking out. so homeless people here in new york city that's come december was very very very very very cold snowy. homeless people do you know how many people. have been i've been on the beach of their own home that i would on the subway and get knocked up in some way they could just say because shelters because i got jumped in the shelter well i just if you do i've been doing about it does anybody get locked up

on purpose now. just like why do they get locked up and shelter and food. coming from them right now ironically ironically i'm worth more to the city of new york his home and i don't personally work if. they make money. they need david reed they make money even jail three days they get people. i mean so you make me the city more than what you think it is you get locked up. actually in defense of america if you have an address you can get supplemental security or you both. will feel like they don't like you but then please if you're supposedly able bodied men they will give you welfare but they want you to work a few hours or something but if you do. zabel. your title to the supplemental

security income which is by the eight hundred dollars a month plus food stamps plus medicaid but you have to have an address in order to receive a check it doesn't have to be your own lease but you can say you're living with somebody you are living with a friend or how do you get it rest if you're homeless. because they've. made a good approach. right. cake walk right krug predicate this is his call and this is this is his spots and everyone who lives on that street knows him and when they go to nice restaurants and they have extra food to take out to get good to get a give to him both in a good mood to give them a cooler or. nothing.

at all to. put up with kevin please look at me a little bit because he's like really hard to do you know. and . then go when he was in our room he painted the postman the poster he was like in costume get a blue suit and he had a hat and a beard when you paid regular people like someone like a lawyer or doctor or some imagist nab you know it's boring. and sometimes the homeless people you look biblical look like they're out of the bible they have long beards and tragic eyes and so this is what interests me the basic statics of the subject. i know subject. participle. but not a sense of humor ok to catch that. every

day coming. up i think i'd i'd like. to see the priest he better say right. now we saw that the people that swayed one was. seltzer. his deal said he would not look at my painting until it's been that it was finished he wanted to take it away he said that's my soul you know you're a jewel you're going to get a million dollars from guggenheim museum i mean it was like and so educated and in certain ways you say that i'm taking a page yes mine so we have we had to fight with it so it's a look at take it today because we buy it be it upload talk about it so i bought

him a hot dog in a beer and i grabbed my painting and i read into it thanks. to him to get away. it's a great deal of mental illness and some of it's quite serious some of the schizophrenia and look people are very very hard to treat and really need medication in order to function in somewhat normal way and if people are just angry at the world it's a society and don't want to have anything to do with any part of of any system and would rather find their own way of surviving. this immediate leave us so we need to keep. the scene potions secure the. party is in full. push is that no one is asking with the guests that you deserve answers

from it's all on politicking only on our team. do we speak your language i mean some of the will inevitably and. news programs and documentaries and spanish more matters to you. a little too in the. story. here. is the spanish foreign visit. is obviously more for the ladies because it's pink. women wanted to avoid rate they really needed to buy guns and how to use them. this is the one that i want to go with them once you give us the feel that. women are definitely the target of the

gun lobby and you don't kill them when you kill anybody but if somebody were you with this with her. i've noticed that more and more is this really scary marketing tactics which implies that women have some sort of moral obligation to own guns to protect their family and young girls shoot out here too so we do have a pink or. more kids young kids choke on food than are killed by firearms if being armed made us safer in america we should be the safest nation on earth were clearly not the safest. community board alone more than somewhere around two hundred children all four of them they also found that child abusers child abusers got access to those kids these hallways calming phenomenon and what i'm saying is overall it's an amazingly rosy picture in that adopted kids international as well as domestic are treated

better than regular kids growing up and i'm troubled biological families in the united states. ok. how do you operate but i'm going to it was pretty cool it's. not an olympic hockey. league. by fire. stalled talks accusations traded and endless demands made this sums up the process being played out in geneva with virtual stalemate on the battlefield outside proxies far left to make the hard decisions and compromises to alleviate and then to finally end the civil war but do these outside powers have the political will.

to the moment that he's. running in march two thousand. that the apartment. was. the train chairs. to actually seem to. know taking naps in the library. come a long way. you know if they're.

closer to the suite or the maybe the smaller the for the better. because you know i was born a few days it was on in new york city. and out of the education but larry everybody there mr chairman. was. brought up in india but that aspect of being harnessed i found columbia presbyterian church and i came and i started eating here and as i started. even here i started to see the service that was being done here in the midst of that i found this michael was given a call in every class. and i joined the class and for him i gave it to myself if i could to become a color never show that it has been hard but i joined doing what i do given

a bad person and giving service in the community as it is he will be doing. is a wonderful feeling to know that you killing off guard only and slowly but surely very says so. and through all of that i was able to create a catering flow because we all their oil in the boiler in order to keep some which terrace and eat in the apartment i put upon the hot water. just so we don't treat. the stuff on it being there when it comes to the debate. as to the last thing i could teach. my came businesses little is now major is not like i'm doing a major company anything so far i've service from behind to me

a thousand people depending on the have been depending on the party so this is one of my six second close's jobs things that i actually do that i took the first was working with kids and that worked with kids for twenty years teaching chess and after school now i'm hoping that now i go back into the afterschool program but now that teaching chess teaching all unary and teaching the next generation how to eat how to cook tame a well balanced meal and not only to eat but the rest cold so we don't have to be dependent on middle. i was like wow i just didn't like. it you know. when

it comes to. everything written down you. know so much money. it's amazing how fast. and it's never just one thing i want. to take you seriously you know. exactly. so really really kind of serious. but i guess optimist i mean. sometimes i get on the system and say i can. only take. most of them is crazy because society can deal with. most. suicides it does more harm to the. most of the time you be here in the media brainwashes you think in this brainwash you into when

they just have a girl if she was so smart she had a passion. she was. a she was so touchy so people say when was she going to show me challenge. and she say. to you. if you. can do what. i can do with the size when you're out loose. you. know you didn't give. me. i know that. just the first day. at least the vast majority of the people who were there. rule for. their will who are. told it. were for

that. that's a big difference between that and. your. kids today doctor all or they grew up middle class or better and something happened something from enron to an illness with no health insurance through financial collapse whatever and very rarely was the trigger out all or drugs usually. most of the people i've got into their substance abuse problems after they've been a. mile this is my daughter she's like everything you know i love it so much it's actually changed now or i was like wow. you know life where did i good night right now and is ninety. the late she been or robot of. my donation my cousin but

her mother just don't want her around me. it's my memory make some test sleep in the matter we read whatever gadgets memories change goal you have no memory you know had no kind of like inclinations of anything this beautiful was something that sticks out in your. life they were. told we deep into a depression. stew is katie you know you want to change the subsumption into a position you can't find your way out. no i really don't have anybody. else i can buy some but. i guess. i guess.

let's have a moment of grace for our meal and i think i did this last year a little song for us to learn that i think speaks for all of us so here's how it goes this is a great room to sing and so sing isom around. us to. suit

us. and you. know los. lobos we and. for justice to those who are fit and. full of justice to those who. sued us. regular soup kitchen serves about one fifty or so far to go soup kitchens have been serving about a hundred fifty i imagine we'll serve a couple or three maybe more depends as long as they keep coming we'll keep for

serving we've got food for here's another order. and. good. word is good after a while you know everybody has a pot. you know what i mean somebody in the bottom is no you know his leg logo on something to the bottom but she will. know when when when you see when you get a lot of the lady in the siesta not around out there some people don't have that will to come back to come back out of the fall this way very very there be. to make up your mind see i'm coming back yeah i'm going to this is a mantra take time and when you push you take that first step mentally it does we come from baby mentally once you take this to push it mentally every day you've got to change everything you've got to be around people who feel that way you've got to be change willing to go to bed with good discipline could just that's what it takes

it takes a lot of discipline at the bottom line is a mental thing when you choose to do something about just something about on my lap to make up your mind to do it and put yourself in the position and be around people it's like mind that you were there with salinity and you just going to make you just have to start from the very bottom did you reach school and work your way back up and get some time to take some to do did you meet with. or. do for you mike. it was kind of a mayor some initiatives at a certain point in your history where the mayor al. churches and other religious institutions to step up in helping solve the homeless and the damage so a lot of faith institutions actually did step forward and provided the church bed program for our program guests arrive between seven thirty and turned thirty and night and then they leave by seven o'clock in the morning it was set up that way

mainly because that's so only way we could make it work with the volunteer staff here. if you really happen anywhere you have as little as just a one bedroom apartment and it can happen. we have a great guest here because it is available but you know people would appreciate any where they sleep. solo on a sailboat just be produced. over a week you don't have to be. tried to make wearing who are. you going to your great opportunity that will make it easier to make you know. will do the he. was. your role he plays the. lead you call the grow up and stop to be up to. what the people
