"Poverty is not the Enemy" with Roadkill
Manage episode 403088602 series 3139657
This is episode #12 of Artful Thought, recorded live at the University of San Francisco's KUSF studio, which aired on Saturday, August 17th, 2019.
I’m stoked to be joined by Roadkill who I met 7 months ago at my first weekly meeting as a volunteer at the Coalition on Homelessness. Roadkill is an SF Native who grew up in the Mission and shares her experience as a formerly unhoused citizen. She’s an adamant community leader for housing and human rights justice, working alongside the Coalition on Homelessness, the production team at Stolen Belonging Project, and among other capacities to urge social change.
We talk about almost everything in this episode, including the Queer community, The Lumineers, mental health, colonialism, how Mayor Breed’s snoozin’ on the job, the fact that Jesus was homeless, her kiddos, as well as the central urgent message of how Roadkill and I met, as she says “we need more solutions for homlessness.”
Nonprofit organizations Roadkill urges folks to learn about and get involved....

- Glide
