But, of course, why would anyone care where a tall black, dreadlocked stranger with bronchitis will spend the night on minus X degrees or so." "Even if I was homeless, so what? I noticed how in American sick and twisted society being homeless is tolerated less than being a corrupt politician or ruthless law enforcement official. Americans need to be educated that NOBODY asked for or wanted to become homeless. I am shocked how many Americans in fact believe exactly that. This is why police on Nov. 21, 2011, on the night of the eviction suspected I am homeless, on top of being black with dreads, treated me as trash, not letting me say anything in my defense. It is so clear for the reasons for racism and classism why I was not given the benefit of the doubt. The officers who shamelessly taunted me of being homeless also reprimanded me for trimming my hair in a male bathroom." campus culture police brutality racism student life
