EXPOSE HOMELESSNESS BLOGSPOT - UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - A COMMUNITY SERVICE BLOG



If you've never hit on us before,  EXPOSE HOMELESSNESS is a COMMUNITY SERVICE BLOG focused on the homeless of the United States of America.  We are based in Southern California, which is the homeless capital of the United States, but we are interested in what's going on around the state and through the country and the world.

NOW THAT YOU ARE HERE, WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO STICK AROUND LONG ENOUGH TO READ THREE MORE POSTS BESIDES THE ONE THAT BROUGHT YOU TO US! 

Reading the news, we're aware that people are being driven out of homeless camp grounds all over the country by small and large cities who have little to no options for temporary shelters, temporary housing, or low income housing programs, and that some of them are putting people on buses to other towns with nothing more than their clothes on their back and a bag lunch.  We consider these "Round Ups" and "Shut Downs" and "Clean Ups"  as well as "Greyhound Therapy" to be akin to ETHNIC CLEANSING that happens in other countries where a minority group is unwanted.  In other parts of the world ETHNIC CLEANSING involves the theft of person's possessions (like when camps are mowed or police or other authorities take a homeless person's possessions) and often violent bloody death.  Here the deaths take longer and are less obvious when it's about lack of health care and dangerous living conditions that kill.

We are always interested in stories you may wish to share about your actual experience of being homeless, living in a shelter, living in an RV or car, or depending on a non-profit that takes money from governmental agencies or donations with the stated goal of helping the homeless.  Use the COMMENTS FEATURE of this blog which is set on anonymous.  If you want us to know about a video, have music suggestions, want to give a testimonial but you DON'T want us to publish it, just advise us DO NOT PUBLISH!
