Lest
we forget: These are
photos of a demonstration at Union Square NYC on December 5, 1999, when
Rudy Giuliani was mayor
and treating people very brutally--wanting to deny shelter & rights
to the homeless in his effort to "clean up" the city. Many
people felt outraged, I among them. That's a young girl
holding one of artist Robert Lederman's signs, "Crueliani." In the
middle the mother and child's sign says: "We are homeless, not hopeless. We need
affordable housing." The sign in the last photo is: "Foxes have holes, and birds of the air
have nests, but the Children of God have no place to lay their
heads." Visit www.housingaright.org
for an explanation of the cause of homelessness and a real solution to
it.
