homeless in los angeles: profiles in poverty 2009



god bless her she is still in the same spot two years later weaving palms like ghandi said to weave for peace.














these are from a blog which i deleted in another violent attack on the internet.  i had gone around hollywood interviewing the homeless about the violent crime they experienced.  there are so many homeless in hollywood that i merely had to walk a couple blocks for an opportunity to speak to the homeless who face huge levels of smog and crime and heat and dehydration and hunger.
after being away from LA for a year i returned in 2011 may to find that many of the homeless had lost a lot of weight.  when a familiar face disappeared, i would wonder, are they dead?
