On The Road Destination: Los Angeles CA, part 3 story by August H Mallory

I have now wrapped up my final story Here in Los Angeles, but I will never forget the traumatic experiences that I came across. the harsh discrimination that I saw. especially towards the homeless. and the homeless literally hating one another. I have been a homeless advocate for a very long time. and from time to time I just want to give it all up and say what's the use. but then when I see how the poor are treated in america. this just gives me more fuel to burn.
the midnight mission, the los angeles mission, the fred jordan mission, the salvation army shelter, and a few others. these places were in fact the places where the homeless could go in order to seek food and shelter. but the staff who ran thse places were not always customer friendly. the primary reason is because many of the staff in shelters are run by the homeless themselves. and many who come off the streets of any city will often forget that they were there themselves.
I have been in conference with the los angeles city council and we have discussed the homeless problem in LA. but for some reason the city council has turned a blind eye to the problem. more and more I saw nothing but hatred towards the poor in LA. I often have asked why is the homeless rate so high in LA. many blame the economy, there is a very high percentage of unemployment in the city of los angeles. many blame the government and so on and so forth. I can only say that a change needs to come in los angeles, this is my story from Los Angeles California. talk to you next time.
