Responce # 3, Some Place Like America

   Hobo Kenneth Burr was thirty years of age, and he was murdered on December 5, 1984 in Santa Barbara, California. Shortly after his death, fliers was attached to telephones, stating you are not welcome hear in Santa Barbara. And we will make life very difficult for you, and I got a group of people who standing behind me as well. The fliers stated BEWARE, it also stated tree people, which reffered to homeless people who slep in a park under Moreton Bay fig tree.
  The issuse was the people who hated these tree people, was to scare away the homeless people.  Cops was sweeping the homeless at night, as well as to make them feel even more uncomfortable. For the journalist, they knew they had a good story to talk about. So Micheal Williamson and I preted to be homeless people, and see what there life is like, to get a good story.
  We ran accross Crazy Red, and Rick and they showed us around. Also they showed us were Burr's body was found, they meet up with four other people, and when the night was dark they slep. But before they was able to sleep, they seen the police with threw flashing lights, and they was moving in fast. The real homeless people referred to America as a iconic landscape, places of lost dreams, and hard lived lives.
 This answer came into topic when Micheal said to Red, how can they do this to us. The police that is?  Red stated that my America is also seen up close, in the eyes of its people. He also says we are wounded as a culture too, because most of us are soft, bewildered, and made numb by our losses. This book  kind of gets confusing on whos telling the story.
  But Ima try to figure out whos telling it, also he talks about how hard it is in America, and about the jobs lost and the economy. And one women who is a waiter, and she'll prolly have to work the rest of her life, because she can't retire. He was hired as a police reporter, at the Sancramento Bee. But he was drawn into the lives of homless people, as well as Micheal Williamson.
  Micheal stated, this wasnt a story that we set out to do, it found us. In 1982 we were set out in reporting the recession of that decade. They traveled around the nation with job seekers, by buses, and cars, and on airplanes. This book took us three decades to write, but the title some place Like America, comes from Louis Adamic, and his book called My America. And talking about hard times, but we just reworded it.
  One of the main purpose was, to set out on this journey after it found us, and compared the wold from the depression times, to the ressecion times. And its going to be hard work, but we can overcome these hard times. I really enjoyed reading this article, the purpose was to educate you, and inform its readers about soiety, from the past to the present.
