Effects of Homelessness Policies
Homelessness policies often result in destabilization, banishment, containment, and even death for unhoused individuals. The speaker highlights that these policies, wrapped in euphemistic terms, actually benefit housed people and politicians, clearing spaces visually rather than addressing the needs of homeless individuals. The policies create a sense of safety and security for homeowners, emphasizing perception over the well-being of the unhoused, leading to a dehumanizing environment.
