A Sameness: Border Crisis/Homelessness

  • Friday, February 23, 2024

Homelessness is what happens when countries uproot, displace, destabilize their own citizens, the communities they've lived for decades in, to make way for whatever it is they want to make way for. 

The border crisis is what happens when powerful nations uproot, displace, make war against, destabilize citizens of other countries, often to gain control of their natural resources. 

Both have been going on for decades and are not products of the present administration. Both are the results of human greed, inhumanity against one's fellow man. The lack of a conscience and moral compass. It's all just come a head. Be it a country or countries or community/communities. Both acts are gentrification on steroids.
