(Not Comics...but honestly I'm pretty mad about this...) "Hooverville" is- A shanty town built during the Great Depression by the homeless. Named after the 31st President Herbert Hoover; the President during the onset of the Great Depression... News won't call these camps what they are, and in some areas like Denver, camps are being swept despite officials promising not to clear these camps during COVID AND the CDC's advisement against it; because people are "complaining", and to cover up the homeless/housing crisis happening. This isn't just CO; other states are seeing similar camps cropping up. If our Government in not going to provide things like rent relief, Coronavirus testing, or another round of stimulus checks; we should at the very least christen these camps with an accurate name- "Trump Dumps". Have Trump's legacy be marked, not by towers or casinos, but by the people who have been utterly abandoned by this crisis. With mass eviction happening, this problem is only going to get worse. Don't let this be ignored or silenced by officials pushing the homeless out of public eye, so our government can be spared the humiliation that they are leaving people to live in tents because our country doesn't have affordable housing. So our government can cover up its TERRIBLE handling of a pandemic that left thousands of Americans vulnerable. Reblog this. Use the hashtag '#trumpdumps'. Write to government officials, like Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock, who is currently sweeping these camps. Or to newspapers essentially playing up the moral panic of these camps, ignoring how they came about IN THE FIRST PLACE. But please remember- with rent and eviction, and the high possibility of a second wave hitting the U.S.... The homeless have nowhere to go. They can't stay in shelters because many shelters are seeing Coronavirus outbreaks. Many can't make money panhandling because people are scared to get near them with the virus. Some states are providing things like toilets, showering, and campgrounds...others are not. These are people who are desperate and deserve kindness. Treat people how you would want to be treated- because with the way things are going, anybody could end up in their situation. (Okay- PSA over!)
