john security, i've been a secretary, i been a forklift operator. i've done different things and you are working all your life right. well, you know from the 17 on us. yeah. the new i've been waiting for housing for awhile, like around 17 years and um, home, whole personal care and the salvation army they got together and they got me a room for a year. so you know, which is pretty good because you know, now i don't have to travel a lot too much and sales like fi, cushy, i had a, i had major surgery on my legs. come on this thing. but i also have a disease and my legs for my blood cells my most to switch. and my skin has a hard time sticking to our legs. so they put these on there to hold it back. but this is the big one right here. because you don't want to kill them so many times. so i was flying around here this in other words, you know, that really is like,

i don't know. that's what a lot of lots of people are homeless then. then the houses. oh yeah, nothing goes on. you on the telephones, where are you from? from new york one year on so you can see it for worth. so i can fax cuz my girls tend to take the little overdose all set overdose and had to come back and have a home. so you don't pay, you know, a lot of people that enough enough don't even know what the fuck is. it's all just crazy. a lot of my friends home boys and girls that are different offices and our job is, well, that's good. we can add it with the new systems we can handle, you know, they're not trying to find it. and if you want to be realistic, realistic about the problem, we gotta hit where the problem really lives. and that's where the drugs, the drugs is where the problems lies and legalize the that, that, that, like i said, met that better knees and other drugs to a misdemeanors. or what good did that do as

teachers help them to be able to do more drugs easier? because the fear before it was a fear of a felony going to jail, do it for, is it time or whatever the case may be. now is just a ticket. that's it. you catch him sitting on the side of the street endangering children's was by smoking this crap out me open and you give them a ticket and you walk away what. how is that changing anything he just goes, gets more and just does it again. it's like we don't care or respect the human of the human race. but when we may make laws and decide it all, they're only a misdemeanor. now it's no big deal. it is a big deal. sorry to hear you say you're from london. yes. rhetoric just outside of london. yeah. what's the name of it?

it's yeah ma'am. nice to meet with. and what do you think about that today says here and what's the weather? so no, definitely noticed a huge difference between the rich and the full on new existing. well, i didn't know existed to the level of did i know it's very high. i'm experiencing it 1st time. this is, you know, it's kind of hard. so i've heard of skid row, i don't know much about that. i've heard so many people say they're going to bring it into a good role and help the people there. that's been there since the 1960. we're in 2014 or, i mean, we run around other countries. like is your country, do you need some help? do you still grow? and they'll help you. yeah. and they'll give you what's your money? a do a bunch of stuff to help your people get better. yeah. and then we look into and then you guys come over here as well. talk, treat everything, go perfect because me being away so much i or so while i've seen it all over the

last 20 on 29, now the obviously grew up watching american television. all of that stuff in what we see on screen here is like, oh sorry, from that is not the perfect image of everything when we start going in depth and searching stuff up and seeing what was actually got. i don't completely different story. i guess what's really interesting is people here and much more neglected then. and i'll just see i've been to every single state who i speak to some years in over the last some years. what was what used to be a partial problem of families here. and there now it is because it's such a big problem. ringback so we're kind of them uh, you know, the heart of skid row, we're on 5th then. well, so on the north side, that's a mission. they have room for our own $600.00 b,

both party to families. you know, you don't see it, but there are a lot of children on skid row. they try to keep them inside. know we have multiple themes from homeless, hold guard to the community health project, doing valuable work, going around distributing narcanon fentanyl district because that is a significant number of overdose. those that happen daily, you know, schedule like a lot of people, you know, don't understand what actually schedule is 54 blocks quote in here. the funny thing is right, the middle of skid row is a police station. and one time when i was there, i saw 2 huge arguing amongst each other. why shoots the dude over the dog and watch the way and the bodies laid out there until 10 o'clock the next day. why i don't know, and there's a police station right across the street. and this was, that was right in front of the midnight shelter. after i saw that i, i just left, i just, just not to be down there. so there are

a lot of people who are struggling with mental health issues on schedule. a part of that is because, um, you know, homelessness by itself is so much trauma on people site keep that, you know, regular people just being on the street end up with the mental illness. but then also because we have such a fractured health care system in the us and a big part of it is having really no support for people with mental illness. so the way the hospital system works, after the initial days, the state doesn't pay for the care of patients. so what the hospitals do is they medicaid them and they dropped them off on skid row. that was a hospital vegas that was caught dumping 1500 patients with the 500 on skid row. 500 in sacramento, and 500 in ad tucson, arizona. most of the time what i'm out here, i'm not even flying for money for itself. mostly just out here,

just people watching is like watching the television. oh is. will good, interesting television because there's a bunch of weirdos in these in her folder, in words, it almost looks like watching zombies from the movies. like it's gonna pop up in there. i don't know, but now, but being on the real tip on that, it's that now it attacks the muscles were the, it basically start to end up with water. it also attacks the strength and in their body where they can keep state a straight body up. so they're basically folded in half have a slip right now, real sleep and evade laying down with a shower or anything like that for over over 8 days past the point of delirium. i'm now as a point of just total exhaustion or frustration of 2. i

can't get a hold of my family holidays. 4 years old and i looked like them probably 60 because of what streets of done this is i. it's tiring. oh, so tired. i tried to go to the hospital because i got the stores for my hands from the shit they're putting in the, in the, in the medicine and the drugs is that, you know, i don't remember some, i don't use anything with yours or anything like that. i don't understand what's going on with this. you know, it's, it's only select people there. they're destroying me. little bits of time rather disturbing. the military. i was with the marine corps, specifically more so a little bit in libya, smaller. you have the people in small entry each other veterans and we treat each other right here on the street. sally,

this is the most wretched group of people i've ever met in my life. and i wish that there was a button you can pushing it would exterminate all divides all the bad people who hurt people what 0 get raped in the only way. and when i tried to get the guy off of, or i was attacked by his homeboys, they broke for my ridge. uh, they split my lip open. i mean like they supposed to be a pretty good excuse my language. the so sensor bear is children with the little uh like a baby uh furnace kind of thing. is smoky smoking, like smoking of it don't need to be afraid and cho yates. so i'm

fairly see in your lives because this person, this person likes this and now you're going to go and do that because you're frightening. you want to be accepted, you recognize, seems hurt, low understood is all the really everybody wants. it's just sometimes some people go buy a weird way of trying to get it because that everybody's inch as intuitive or in salvage, that everyone has all the skills and all the gifts and the ones that don't. we need the loving invitation and understanding instead of hating them for what they're doing. actually notice and then maybe it might be a different story. is kind of cute, being short stubby like sometimes you don't even know where to go to sleep. watch it. you know, you to walk into a town, you don't know where despite is, don't know where you can pop it up and be safe. still not to serve his place in word world, it's made of cloth and easy,

nice could cut through it. but what they don't know is i don't how to my girl. she's the ones the type of word that because i'm, i'm, i'm, i'm, i'm not violent. i don't like being, i don't wife violence. but this was the question, is she, she has a couple of what they call uh, she calls in between kirby don sticks, where she's not afraid to come out of the tent and bash it. most of you know, i would do that because i just don't like violets at all. it's my home is where i live every single night. the take a fresh look around it. life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality. distortion by power to division with no real opinions.

fixtures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills. and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented to this, but can you see through their illusion going underground? can the the to me this one more to personalities. been this is a must always displayed the loading on the, on the 2nd, but to pull it out and give them the say, the most value of what would have done the scale wherever he is he looking the, i want them to me like what the issue the most seattle can they have to be like

what the she a little guy know? are you the other day you can not to go and even throw both of them good for you saw the the level of again, the, there's going, there's the guys that, that she to go into. good. that'll say investment will be, i know me, they've been dealing with nearly many bits of shoney's face. so to see that could have been yet a little just monday or they go and it's good to go on monday. did you want to go to so many doc a for this you by law, go to one and 2, but she's to go mean he goes empty. i'm the, i mean the must have gone to the i'm, we a more then the other she be the be i one of all the guy on piano already, then that's around like it goes it, give a my go down, it will be the, [000:00:00;00]

the, [000:00:00;00] the, or maybe we could do a little interview with, oh my god, that's a, that's the com, right? yes. all right, so you barely hear grateful for that. we moved here. we in the right places like this only exist. can you imagine where you would be at a place like this? well, you know, this is some of the attendance and the struggles that people go through trying to

keep up with the rents. you know, it's a real struggle. and he gets very real, especially when you have family children, you know, can you imagine, you know, what do you go if you cannot afford you ran that you have children. i mean, my heart goes out to moms like her that, that i see her daughter i, she's going to school down the street. and i need some beautiful sight to see that . and, and we have, uh, we have my or her as a mom. and we also admire the little child that just smart. why beautiful, biggest smile. so she brings a big smile to our own faces. you know, i just put them doing well, but we're not affordable housing. and you know, many people be literally, as you say, living on the streets. i mean, when, when age of about this building, there were some people that were living here. so some of the rooms kind of just that. so it would be more affordable. but uh,

they have certain amount of units that are exclusively for people that don't have homes. so we work with them and i'm place them. if we have any openings, you know that you may go to whoever it may be applying, but application has come really fast and, and the fills up fast. we have other buildings that which is bought. and as soon as they fix them, it fills out really quickly because, i mean, the people are waiting for housing for a long time. you know, we have shown this the city that now we can actually provide housing a much cheaper than what the, the city is doing. the city spends a lot of money and deliver very few apartment units. some of the units can start as low as a $100.00 compared to other places with the amount for what we offer here. you pay close to $2000.00 for

a studio unit with the bathroom and the kitchen area. so pretty much less than half a month. the other thing is martha was going to lose her subsidized income through the program. she was in and she wouldn't have been able to afford the rent, but they were gonna put her in another one of our buildings. and she loved it here so much we ended up just trying to advocate for her when she was able to stay. and then we lowered her, her rent down some of them. so she could stay here you go in any city or state, they have cranes there just over building. i mean, some of those buildings are left to empty and we have, so we have enough here of empty buildings that we could put all the people who are on our streets in. but that's why there's always talk. so cities having

attacks for having empty spaces, so then they would be more incentivized to, to accept section 8 or take a family in or not look for their ideal candidate. but real estate, i think, is just become this huge way to invest and they're not thinking about housing, people anymore. and i think that's all over the united states. they used to be the, you know, you get a, have a family and you'd be able to get a house and, and we've just been as progressive thing. i don't think that's happening for most anymore the wailing season. yeah. use my own eggs. i love the sea, so my dream is to one day have

a place of my own when my husband and be either running an o coram, or working at one room in the court room. yeah. and studying to see you guys, you know, see creatures and taking care of. um i love to see as much as i love dogs. which creatures will be the gross annual within your inquiry and they're on their dolphins. and any day they have a spot for the crabs and the clams and the, the oysters, you know, just beat those. you actually can raise them. and they can give you pearls, clams,

and oysters. they get, they give you pearls. if you have enough sand at the bottom, the much more unhappy with that because they don't get to, to worry about. i got 0 stressors. how about you? you as a the stressors. do you have to have a list for me as me? i got no, i'm happy exactly where it needs to be free from all the lies that everybody cast around like parents and then decide you know, one week because you're not so dark, you're ok or more. we do a little more dress nicer. you're all right. judge federal level how people should look dressed at all those aspects. it's code for different forms of braces like my daddy. oh you say keep it simple. stupid. i have one son was or

that's totally different story. is that one? i don't know the, another thing to add with homelessness in california and one of the things and again across the board in the us as well. one of the biggest reasons we have this issue is we have a really broken foster care system up to 70 percent of children exiting the foster care system in the us become homeless at some point in their life weight when they exit after they turn 21 they basically have very little access to services, but unfortunately because of foster care system is so broken. and because these kids are going through so much trauma, by the time they hit our streets desktop for him, for mental illness, they might be suffering from a diction. all they might be. they might be putting situations where

a pushes them into into incarceration, which i'll do monthly means that they end up homeless lading like your income match, the cost of living back in my time, but it doesn't match anymore. in fact i who we get in certain scandinavian countries, they have a cap on there, the and i'm, but you can get, which is like, i say, a 22 to 25000 a year. but in, in america there's no cap on how much you can make or how little you can get because you can get nothing or the skies limit. they're talking about slash and social security and slash and different things. i don't know why. we don't get enough as it is, you know what i'm saying. you were all your life and then you want to retire. but you can't really retire because uh, i might end up homeless eventually if, if there was, if the rent keeps going up in, you know, i may eventually get homeless my own so which i worry about, you know, we, so richter,

profit from all this corporations during the pandemic. i'm leaving now. rick of profits. we have more billing. there is now the neighbor before i get, we have more people living in poverty and extreme poverty than ever before. corporations control and he's no secret building, there's control, you know, bonded fixing america. so when that happens is every policy that comes out, the 1st thing that is going to be thought about is not the, the, the working class or the people is how is going to affect feeling next. during the, by the not in put in us, it gives each other, you know, the republican said that democrats are the enemy. the democrats said the republicans, are the enemy at the end of the day. the real enemy is the people that are seen power, you know, and we have a whole bunch of followers that don't see how they have sold us out.

it would be a good starter one. so it's not that bad, but it's too small. it would be a good start or would you rather stay in a car by vehicle? yes. rather than. yeah. and i'd have to learn how to drive while you have to learn for the drive. yeah. i don't have my license yet. i've never driven a car in my life, so that's why. so it's also called sprain during which is squared change 2 words put together. you basically make a sign. you fly walking down either a median or you sit on a street corner and hope to make money. one way of like the most successful day, i made a 100 bucks on this corner. sure .

yeah, i'd be really, there's a villain is ation of people who are in house and their neighbors are instead of helping them, they are looking at them as a problem in very dehumanizing way. and i think if they would just embrace them as their neighbors, because they are their neighbors and share and be generous. i think so worlds and all this circumstance with he'll have to leave you those i for a while like um, bein underneath the bridge and hearing the car. it's susan. you can waste a lot of energy and time thinking about negative things and not being pause while you're sitting there waste. you know, a lot of times the negative about it, you're missing out in the opportunities that could be there for you

while it's happening. uh, like i said, the worst critics will be yourself. so make things harder than what it should be. it's not that it's not that hard money. i'm sorry, we're good. oh, pressure for the payment. it's me. i want you to give you the detail out of here before i end up having to hurt myself or hurt somebody else or get hurt myself. really bad. who's coming to that? i got an attacked inside of the target last night. i just got attacked and had my

bike showing it's all by the same people using them crazy or various things crazy. but i know it's for a fact it's not oh the the, the gym. and so just deal with the, with the one with taking the picture. they were proud of the muscle by the way, to go in your mouth. so i can recommend your opinion there. know that he got dirty with, or i actually was who i see on google. okay. and with and then almost a week ago and then we'll get to bundle the, the general say to us just love the screen. but is this indeed

reality? last, there's never been to the did you purchase a i did you please give us a time to time guys? size and call you to do this to yourself. if it's your stats us a v as in i'm sure this is a very bold decision by the gym and government to even stop because he is when the agreement was reached to generate more divisions and more and got more questions or more of those the out is using to pay us what they are giving us just go to the pollution countries and now we have not been support. you've called for what has been happening here. it will open the ponder as box the next thing it will be them for then also have to pay

the donald trump's return to the white house is world historic by any measure to 47th, the president has the advantage of being the 45th on top of that, he won the popular vote, he has amended, what does he have in store for us? in 1941 with the nazis health relation, ultram nationalist view astonishes the claim, the independent state of croatia. shortly off, the seizing power. they build the scene of us concentration camp a place associated with the worst atrocities committed in yugoslavia during world war 2. use dash is used to come system to isolate and exterminate subs, roma, jews, and other non catholic minorities, and political opponents of the fascist regime. conditions in the santa of us come
