and really became his drug dealer who's to blame. doctors manufacturers and the government. the unique thing about marshmallow lives is that he the adults are afraid of us quite frankly members of congress are very afraid of us and that's something we know and we definitely use to our advantage we're able to get meetings with people who quite literally will never vote in favor of any gun violence prevention bill but they're afraid to not because they don't want to see what would happen if we were to call them out for not taking our meeting but 187 total instances 38 deaths 93 injuries and 15 teenagers killed or injured 3 children serious. to not offended.

if we go into these rooms with these with these house members and they'd be surprised because we were these young faces who had experienced stuff myself my friends bring them into those rooms suddenly these senators didn't have the same kind of talking points which they normally how they could just show us down. the river 3 cheers a mili i mean they see me. so i don't know form to talk to you or the powerful seeing that and seeing that young people can feel the effect that really just showed me that across issues across spaces across the nation we need young people to be able to stand up and actually make their voices heard because they have an impact and they have a real measurable. as

a go. this is. just. really. minutes because there are good. somebody is of.

the father big brother there on the figure that they use to voice that they might not be getting and that's when like the 100 kids and the of those. acrobats i spent a lot of a lot of my time with the young people whether it's taken to go ego on the play basketball the concert my house they play games they also i educate them and you know bring them together on issues that are affecting them in their community. which i don't power them to take to speak at one of these events to run on these events to be a father marge's and just showing them that they are capable of. starting their

own movement. how. come. they say the investigation. their station starts they can say. they're definitely connected it's the size of the same coin i think in order for you to see real change there it takes building their relationship there are levels

of relationship that they have to occur where you're trying to make make real change so it's one thing for us. to be on the ground be grassroots be on the field but there's no mandate that's helping us to do those things so i think having the right people who have those connections you need that you need that's also getting the folks who actually in the field who are living this on every day this is trying to make a difference and the folks who are able to reach those in the power that have the power to write laws to to give resources to send funds to these committees that. good afternoon everybody so before we get started on the road noticing how the young people behind me i wear red sable crossed a mouse with words on it and just to show that represents either a power for. a loved one that they lost to gun violence while while the fight.

whoa. this bench is one of thousands and thousands of benches of thousands and thousands of years some bench as foam logs or ledges of slate or edges straight from manufacturers of all kinds and people come to convene all remember and get a free system so rest we set. this bench somewhere on the eastern seaboard of the united states and there. is attention brought by every day and they're asked. to one day actually mean and i hear the most beautiful old poetry ever heard. that's right that's today over

72019. i saw the wall street journal on a bench left behind by an investment banker. at night a woman experiencing homelessness used the news as her pillow in a blanket. she spread the business tax sections across her legs politics across her breasts. she adjusted her head on life in the arts and used the bench itself as a bed sized for a queen. i saw full life living death her dying breath alive in her chest. an open orbit. a human born and wearing. a body left behind. an untold obituary. a journal.

and unrecorded life. on a bench. see the map. you see where we are. there. where the rescue mission. that sat now r.c.m.p. jones 6 here. ready. we're going to come up on the back of it right now. you see our room. count the floors count

1234 we're on the 4th floor which one you think is our room. over there. what is the fate of the progressive movement can it continue to co-exist with the

mainstream establishment left is this current trajectory. and temperance recipe part of a greater political field. there's a saying. look there on the cheek. and then through all the conflicts. let's. get right let's go to a sculpture he said to me you ever slipped into. this country. this is what we don't understand how we are in such a. mess until 2 months at the same time. similar. to one. of those if you feel.

the middle of not that got to do with the fall of the couple with the plane. would come back to the place story you have to see. the end. did you move. to move you. on.

pay were almost there your memory this. high to air i love it there are you. here it is. so this is where we used to live at the union rescue mission this is the front door you know we stayed here 8 months . at 1st there were so many families women and children here that we stayed in the day room which is basically like a large dining room large cafeteria style setting one only i'm sure ours looks like a gymnasium. but we had air mattresses and slept on the floor for the 1st couple of months so from september until december and then in december we were placed into a room and because my daughter was with me and not my side it was just me and one child i was sharing a room with 4 other mothers who all had one child with them at the time. ready.

i did meet jacki or both of us go. every afternoon.

this is about 75 miles 80 miles from our home but the longest distance is when we do venice sunset on monaco that takes at least an hour and 45 minutes to get there . we do this 5 nights of the monday through friday. skid row and dot com and in st paul you were wednesday in south central l.a. and. venice and santa monica. is again down the civic center in. union station in. the movie and we have to sign a program. that is to serve them visit a month they are going to ask them any questions don't judge them that's muddy waters and how they ended up being on the street it's not our job to judge down. what he likes to be a speed sleeping on the payments with air traffic running that own in

a totally unsanitary conditions that's nobody's wish to be that way. there's a 1000000 reasons why people become homeless it's not always mental illness and it's not always drug addiction yes those are true. i think those are 2 reasons that have a really negative connotation so it's easy to say only crazy people become homeless and it's easy to say only attics and drug users become homeless that's never going to happen to me and my family but the truth is in the united states most people are a paycheck or 2 away their their one unpaid credit card away you know their one payday loan away. their one unexpected pregnancy away their one job loss away there

are so many reasons why you could end up homeless and unable to pay your bills and unable to keep a roof over your head in your family's head. lots of people leave the foster care system and have nowhere to go you turn 18 years old and you are out that's it you go from having no parents and just a foster family to being on the street all the sudden you're 18 it's like you're an adult figure it out. when you're living on the street when you are unsheltered person when you have nowhere else to go you have nothing to look forward to. i really think that i can understand how easy it must be to slip into drug use and then fall into addiction

because if you've just got nothing else good going on in your day and you need something to make you feel good. i can imagine that there's. you know. i can't imagine that much else is going to make you feel good at that point when you've hit rock bottom it's like. it is what it is i don't sell. and then immigrant coming from india it was where he when he heard forgive me because i was seen by our people with the. word bothered me here to see these homeless people who are raised here on here such as wealthy country of the world the wealthiest country in the world. and yet these people are going through trash

cans. to survive. the irony that it's not seconds and. we have a program for she and i mean we've used to eat the food part meals of the homeless made of a day on the street of los angeles. want

to now bridge over 852200 meals a night. we make it a point and we. have them form a line to give somebody comes to the truck find. yes indeed mine in my opinion is going to. eat human life that's not the idea that we started we wanted to give dignity is to be the. father set up the table and in this water on the way we came to. check out.

my life. and told the wall and gives as well as. the seed of something i would like to see the wall and tears of the sea more than war dead give me. a little nap and 3 more years down the. mountain again we might be passing on by a few books worked out but we need. donations of will be sent into the it's. the moment we are what you get is an experience of compassion that confession to not because our compassion can only be expedient. and you don't want anyone. that's priceless. i was basically faced with that situation where the

a part manager knew i didn't have any way of paying in mediately. but when i told her i was going to start working and i had family that would cover the rent until then it didn't matter to her she said. that she knew i was going to go back to him that she'd seen it happen. years of times before where . women claim that they're being abused and then they run right back to the man that they're alleging abuse against and she didn't want to deal with that trauma and she thought it was better if i just moved out. the manager gave me a deadline to leave before she filed the eviction people work and so i left. because i knew it was just going to be that much harder to find an apartment if i had an eviction on my record but the day that i left the apartment. i really i did not have anywhere to go. i had

a little bit of money from my aunt and so i went and a hotel room at langley. and i was staying in hotel rooms by myself or like if i didn't have enough money i would sleep in my car. and i would try to. like. like i had packed up and put everything into storage but i didn't really know how he's going to pay this storage bill and how many going to pay. you know to keep the kids and their toys and things like that and so i started selling things out of the storage unit to keep the storage unit and then going and selling blood. i was working. doing online transcription. so that was piece rate it was very very small sums of money i might work all day and make you know $15.00 i had

never been on welfare before i had never been on assistance. i've had unemployment when i had lost jobs in the past but i had never gotten food stamps i had never gotten any. and to go from. having had a job since i was 13 years old to being in a motel wondering how i'm going to get $40.00 to find somewhere for me and my kids to sleep it was like an impossible momentous i just had no comprehension of how do i get to a homeless shelter. so that whole process was from may 15th 2071 the road into domestic violence shelter was alive. so all those months were in motel rooms or sleep with all. the fun.
