I was volunteering with a group that had food drug and eyes i jumped in and started volunteering at a table and taking care of my jeans stuff a friend of mine here in st louis had a salon and she gave me some really expensive shampoo and it was like you know 40. 00 a bottle. I gave it to this gentleman and i said here this is a really expensive shampoo and he said thank you but i got i dont know where to use it and it was just so embarrassed and ashamed that i was so excited about passing out shampoo to someone but i didnt think that far enough that they would have nowhere to use that and so i got to thinking that if we make food trucks and you know perfect kitchens inside of a truck like can we put showers inside of a truck and kind of started the whole process from there but it is good to see you good to see you again. But about a week. Ago a. Malcolm x. For many protesters on the streets of america speaking about the media he once said that if you know skillful it could have you and hating the people being oppressed and loving the people doing the oppressing but does that distinction mean in todays e. U. Is it. According to several sources felice in the United States kills from 2 to 4 people every day. Heads and. We. Sanitised have been. One of my being arrested for a response from me and. That is just their little world to establish they developed just us against them and. How long they should have 2525 years has. Never had to shoot someone quoting you know. There is a corruption inside of the police but i think. When i was chain years old i discovered i could seen a little bit and didnt know how many so some guys in the neighborhood told me how to harmonize and we formed a group my brother 9 a couple more guys got out and we did the local talent shows in the schools and in the nightclubs in memphis. Blues a local star talent you know and in the city of memphis. Only song everybody elses stuff you know the guys who already had records out we were so good you saying their stuff you know so today what happened come out and work so hard so they gave us the 1st segment of the hour and we say man we just got out of the steppin. No movie saw and just lived in fear. And then ill do ill believe see theres always a plus a move. To Say Something like the song its all her. Fault it was on the cd and you. Meet somebody new to be able to believe in that you know you millionaire in the end. I have people. Coming up on top of the hour right now a lot of planning on. Telling me im a pretty tough time me type. Piano teacher presuming to speak to him from time to time on the economy on top. So this is on the Breakfast Rescue Mission where the largest Free Service Provider of meals in philadelphia where the only Service Provider breakfast in the entire city. With their 400. 00 meals a day and no matter what always. That includes breakfast lunch and dinner. Also we serve about 180 all every single night we just need a place to sleep. Every single bed in this room that currently has a pillow on it is actually a physical person who has reserved this bed tonight so as you can see we really are almost completely full. So im a Breakfast Rescue Mission is 139 years old so there were actually quite a few Homeless Individuals in philadelphia at the time it was even way before the Great Depression yet there was a very large homeless epidemic in philadelphia. We dont perceive any government funding so that means that were completely independent of the strings that would come along with accepting any money from the government. We do this because we dont necessarily want the strings but also if there is a giant budget cuts that like there were a few years ago we actually dont get affected because we have our entire revenue stream from individuals who are donating us money instead of. Through something that is so easily attained changeable like. Policy. So in the past few years in america weve had quite a difficult time with passing our budget that means that weve actually had a few weeks where our government shuts down because we just. Cant get past. That it does become quite a problem for people who are relying on that money. Go 3rd mostly. Well weve got a mayor that obviously with his wife promises. To the mentally ill will go homeless that really hasnt happened. Or. I got a call from the city on 20000000000. 00 surplus fall for a while housing has a couple from the. Only thing i see the bills here is more tell. Me. No. You know i live on the street do a lot of homes you. We said you know all of the drama all so much so sue simmons would step forward into many government officials serious its very morning in the white horses to get to the wall street because at some point you have to help people jane help themselves. A lot of it is just the unfortunate fact that most people in philadelphia are only about 2 paychecks away from homelessness so that means you dont have a job for 4 weeks and then all of a sudden youre going to be homeless because you are literally living from paycheck to paycheck you need that next job in order to continue paying rent and if you dont pay rent then you will be affected. From my perspective i really believe that the route to homelessness in philadelphia is the fact that. There is a very high population below the poverty line. A lot of people if you lose 2 paychecks and thats not going to be a big deal but in philadelphia that is an extremely big deal for about 40 percent of the population. Anyone can become homeless a lot of people become homeless because of some sort of catastrophic event in their life maybe the medical bill was just too high or a fire in their house maybe a divorce or Something Like that could could potentially cause homelessness. Why is the moscow baltimore and so are you savvy all of the right of that so i was told over welfare top customs. I was born virtually for college graduates. Have 2 masters in a bachelors degree.

Done more to get my life back together im tired of the all the street im doing is a very long time i didnt really want to help i had a lot of suicide attempts and get. Back to god were going to charge them all aspects of god. Im trying to be the best person i can be a 2nd at a time david said it was easy. Sometimes i mess up on the mistakes you know why i need help and i dont want to go by myself ill try most of mossads ive tried i understand what theyre going through and i can make their life a little bit more comfortable become the face of the homeless and have a platform in the fullest for the homeless and then let them know that is really all self is less a selfish thing because its really not about me anymore its all about you know what can i do to make life better for somebody else having that experience myself theres a place captivates and then from.
