yeah. and now they're being used no now they've been sitting here for a better part of a year collecting dust. people are you know struggling and suffering. so yeah it's really sad i mean it's you know this is human life here you know. los angeles authorities have accused his tiny himes of threatening public safety. elvis has seen the tiny house movement good viral online with support coming from right across the world so with the help of internet crowd funding he's going rogue once completed they all have a new carbon pad. alarms on the windows i put the vents these holes in the top you know it's really hot summer here so that way the heat will rise and go out in the city of angels elvis isn't considered one by the powers that be. but to the homeless he's one of the few struggling to get them off the streets i don't quit

and i don't give up and i definitely don't bow down to bullies people need shelter now if i have to build a tiny house for every last person. five hundred years old then that's what i'm going to do. elvis is building his next house woman. so you people that live in. ravens living on the top next to a freeway. and from say. the situation much worse than when. this is rare you almost service. the sea. ravens be. on and off the streets most of my life i do for work so so in

that area yeah sure after fleeing a violent home when she was just thirteen years old. she once had a time but since the city forced most of the street she's been out here so you do not. tired after getting that house i happened to do pretty well you may know a pretty good life but there are times when it took you know what it would be. like to bring the true story of. elvis is worried by the state that this communal camp and he leaves to buy raven a tent until he can build her a new tiny house so i'm going to have a tent and are running back to you guys in a little while. alone. opens up about his situation. it's been a struggle. and.

the city always kicks us now from the state to the creek those. who want to costly move their stuff every day. ravens out here because she feels the mission see shelters are overbooked or unsafe but city law was designed to move these camps on. and as a funk you she receives a visit from. our. boys and we got to. get him about this by saturday. eldest. raven has given much more to us.

she's running out of places to go they want everybody downtown where body one section. is not going to happen yet or branch out. is going to get away from downtown they wired by downtown six downtown skid row. the worst place in history to be homeless downtown. if you're homeless in l.a. city laws to keep streets clear give you two choices. keep moving. on the ones grow. this is the only place that you can sit up a tent without the city forcing belief. but elvis is tiny homes aren't allowed here . skid row is. unlike anything else in the united states.

i call it the worst manmade disaster in the us hi. how are you. doing ok. and details runs a pig in the agency shelter in the middle of skid row which i'd like to he's seen the numbers of women seeking help here trip in just a year but you me again deborah nice to meet you i bless you got pretty eyes. and he's on crutches because last year he lost a leg to the flesh eating bacteria that exists here still every day he's out inviting new arrivals to his shelter because he knows just how bad it gets more than two thousand people on the streets forty nine square blocks of skid row it's the worst that we've ever seen are just a good idea you really need to look down that street there's not one open spot or summit site. well. for probably a half

a mile down that way. elvis is tiny houses designed as an option to avoid sleeping on skid row. because he is the increasing numbers of women and children a sleeping alongside drugs crime and the mentally ill. and police are the only source of protection cites a pretty constant yes day and night. by. the maintaining order to campus truck running with handcuffs. commanders running with handcuffs to this yes. i'll spend one night every once in a while and streets and i can't sleep because it's so dangerous and you just stay alert rats are running around running over people running in their chants and often people get beaten or assaulted or raped and that in effect can damage

your health pretty quickly. so i'm all for tiny houses but there has to be restroom facilities and shower facilities because otherwise we're putting in people in treacherous living conditions just as if they're living in a tent. and this is why and the shelter keeps an open door policy but he's struggling to keep up with demand i can see right here right across the city shelters are full up many have to turn people away the simple fact in l.a. is there's just not enough shelter there are not enough beds forty seven thousand people experiencing almost this and there are about twelve thousand shelter beds or transitional housing beds even if people on the streets right now. sighted to come

in there's nowhere to come in there's no place to go. up again with limited access to emergency shelters and low cost housing life on the streets in l.a. is an endless game of cat and mouse. because the city is charged with keeping the streets clean morning everybody this department of sanitation crew is about to move through the homeless encampment of skid row. watch out watch out for hazardous materials watch out for human away. industrial operations like this happen daily across los angeles to keep the streets clear the homeless to be constantly on the move. we are here every day in skid row every street is clean once every two weeks so this cycle that's the big effort we're doing. think it's essential this essential to the cities.

the cities the comic growth and also the city's image this team will put more than five tons in the gadgets truck today anything they deem to be unsanitary. most of it will be rubbish but some of it will be people's tents and the few positions. that. have thought of something. like. this that. you're in a waste. that the city gives advance notice of the cleanup but not everyone gets the missing. today or some unlucky ones. like the rest and. they like it because repeated i mean if you want to. live in the street you want to live in. sidewalk decide to devalue the loss leader.

but the city's focus on keeping the streets clean means further instability when you're living on them. it's also one of the main reasons elvis is tiny houses a band playing to hampering operations like this. you know we have the support of it on the street. so we can we if you a good side it is safe conditions to live it so we basically the city has been a determination those should not be on the city streets. i max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is fun it's a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these hedge

funds are simply not accountable and we're just getting more and more to them. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get in for a while because we're. just manufactured sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling classes to protect themselves. with the crime and go around. doing all middle of the room sick. most definitely wasn't a victim. of any kind of racial or ethnic tribes that person side. because it was

both really destroy it wasn't going to debate it has fought us exchanges out of concern and they are dependent on the because they certainly have to get their people they can through they get into trouble. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but none of us signed up to be friggin poisoned by our own people of seeing stuff that was nuclear biological and chemical products the said do not truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene batteries trucks there was a complete denial i think at all levels of government that there was any connection between berm pits and what these brave soldiers were suffering from to compensate every soldier marine airman and sailor that was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from their exposure from the burn pits would really literally send

a v.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the wady in decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they will have to pay. paul burrell to get the middle finger to the v.a.'s in wilder's so. delayed and i hope you die. later that day i write back great camp. they made a mess they did the break they basically did the same. and find out that getting your belongings can get out of the state. or property destroyed. money i ask you. i know that. q did.

you know. this will be the rules you had to be tempted away from the driveway. to tennessee down sixty nine. and mrs rainey. and the seventy two hours to move most. christine is new to the streets priced out of the rental she's desperately trying to get back and. she says money by collecting her psychosis. but the authorities just take an entire week's work. but there is that the good reason. i didn't. like it to be a. street. the city's clean up means that christine will be out here even longer.

before anything for was better. can take into the to. know is a. well. for many homeless people in l.a. a lack of affordable housing makes it almost impossible to get off the streets. liston three percent of the city's rental market is fake and. we walk around most of the night and then christine shows me something how breaking . this is a famous blouse. estival house that i called my home. now the memories here in. so that was home this is home for me.

i do miss home the four walls. that's all to cheer in. that again. it's just a god's timing that mike and then he says in mind. this is my back. don't be a stranger ok. well this is tiny homes could help people like christine until they get back on their feet back in compton the pressure is on for them to finish raven's tiny house. but he still needs to locate

a place we can put it some way the city clean up one easily find these are just two of over eight thousand lots of the city controls. but. often stuff more love is not allowed. and while searching he gets a call from raven with an unexpected update. for you all right now from your son. yeah i'm pregnant. this morning they're pregnant hard on a governor. over a over a vote on a very sure i have my life together elvis is already worried about reagan but he must to some enthusiasm i will listen i got to run right now but i'll call you back later that's that's great news we have to celebrate. and i want to thank you i want to jump for joy and like cry of just in time like.

this is how quickly a change in circumstance can see your life go from bad to worse when you're on the street. when the stakes raised for her tiny house i want to see her ravens coping with the news of her pregnancy. despite getting orders to move she's still here at the same campsite. you don't want to go. ahead and.

a little concerned regarding the conditions. living at this time i got a lot of business to take care of. don't know if i'm have enough time to. also makes me feel like. like. like getting off the streets. but getting off the streets is difficult for even. we talk more and she reveals the devastating level of violence she fled as a kid with a t.v. . i was listed as a juvenile runaway. been in prison. five months pregnant with. murder. case of choice but to. time. ravens had to learn to be tough.

but she's right on the pitch. like more and more americans take here. she strips deep in the cycle of long term homelessness. with no immediate way of getting out. when your life is the size of a teen can be a powerful tool. it's almost delivery day and with the news that raven's pregnant elvis is adding a special finishing touch to her tiny house. so i'm ok with just a little something to help her feel better and you know help her feel like she's got a nice guy to look at elvis knows how important little details like this can be he's watched too many people lose hope on the streets since the city forced me to take

houses away from people three people have died mainly due to being stuck out in the elements and not having anywhere to go so it's it's criminal. picture smokey sitting in the doorway of her her tiny house one of the people who died was his close friend smokey who received the very first tiny house new year's morning i found her dead in somebody else's tent not even her own because the city took that to. so. it's pretty simple without shelter people die. it's been a few months but. was a good person and she was my friend. inside city hall the pressure is on to create more housing. the city has approved

a multi-billion dollar strategy to help the homeless but it will take ten years to build ten thousand new units which is well below to. get officials refuse to embrace elvis's tiny i'm for me a tiny house on a parking space is not a solution we're doing at this service to those individuals who stayed in these tiny homes without the out of it if a structure in place city council. opposed tiny houses in his district because of concerns from angry residents. someone monitoring the site otherwise it'll be a free for all it'll be sex drugs and rock'n'roll and. they would absolutely have to have some rules and. see. if they are here why put these guys back they'll this and the city is clear

and yet again this time even in christine's camp right now that load open up there was a show. that's considered a faulty item so it's going in the dumpster. almost breaking in christine's belongings are taken by the department of sanitation. not around so only christine is here to see it they say you know it well i mean do you hit rock bottom. i didn't run five every year. i know that money spent. you could spend half of that and give these people a place to go but instead they're treating my ham. with ravens camp demolished most of her positions gone and with a baby on the way elvis must deliver her tiny house before nightfall to close with

ok. i finally found a suitable location for ravens tiny house in a quiet area mostly industrial. affect anybody. elvis and raven hoped this part of downtown l.a. away from skid row would be safe from the authorities. with already he's a must continue to keep l.a. streets clean days finally. for the tiny house delivery and how you feeling very good by a very. good life a lot of. going through a lot of hardship. so this tiny house it's a person asked. after the week that she's had and everything she's gone through on top of the in fragments it's more important now because i know because i did not

get any rest. you really feel if. i do. anything. i think. i'm going to think. most things i do in life are out of principle. i was taught that somebody falls down you pick them back up. that's what we should do a lot. to remember that you know you know. you called me and said. you know people sit on the back porch and. look at the stars so one looking up at the entire area have to see it sit another good tired but the stars it's got a magic. so finally raven gets her own

private space. hopefully the first time in over a year a good night's sleep and helen do you think it's going to last. that was said to say with us forever i wish it could last forever. after the gods hands. were.

twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. you guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star and the huge amount of pressure you have to be the center of the football with you and do all the great. you are the rock at the back nobody gets to you we need you to get left go. alone. and i'm really happy to join for the two thousand and ten world cup in russia meet the special one. needs to just say the radio the aussie team's latest edition to make up a bigger. look. for

the mainstream media playing out roles found in the great russian novel the possessed voicing dissent against media orthodoxies has never been more dangerous and is peace breaking out on the korean peninsula. you know. you never know what's around the corner you never know what's in the pub you can walk into a nice excitement in fact not knowing that's where the adrenaline in much comes from. and you can use a nice blend definition and the extremes will supply. the violence is a part of an exhibit almost a schizophrenia gang culture where you can do all these things and behave badly.

they're going to be full of horse colorful it all for the both of us both more so for the last. one this man infirmed. role and didn't follow us from the start. i would roll the way enough i figure out i really did a poll down down went up a little bit. meaning in reason is that at least if you don't win the involves it's constantly evolving the. global war hawks selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that still. produce talks credits tell you that so be it gossip the tabloids buy files. off the bad guys and tell me you are not full enough let's fight. these are the hawks that we along with all its worth watching.
