Every person is a human being

By Lyric Rogers

Homelessness is a large problem.

An eighth of all people in any given city are homeless.

You can be considered homeless if you live with another person, are out of work and don’t pay rent. Homeless people are constantly the butt of abuse and are the vent of police brutality and anger.

The word homeless can be used as a slur, and the bias against all homeless people is that they’re drug addicts and violent.

This bias leads to police throwing the homeless population in jails and prisons for things that they’ve never done.

The police use their unprecedented bias to harm the homeless, who already have next to nothing.

Now they can’t get jobs or even get a house if they had enough money. 

Homelessness, one of the worlds largest problems, is always prominent.

And it always will be there unless we do something about it.
