Invisible People on Instagram and LA County removing homeless encampments

Some libraries are punk as fuck. Some public libraries have enacted policies that limit access to services for homeless individuals. These policies include the policing of smell and odor, charging a fee, or banning bulky items from being brought indoors. While libraries have a limited reach, they are a great place to get connected to other resources, use the internet, or charge your phone. Patrons might even find something worth reading while there.

According to the Point-in-Time count of homeless individuals, 1 in 3 people living on the Big Island are chronically homeless or unsheltered. The voluntarily houseless community in Puna is different than  people who were displaced when they lost their homes to the lava in 2018 or because of the 2019 global pandemic. Services for displaced people can be found around the island including the Neighborhood Place of Puna and other state recognized homeless service providers. If you are experiencing homelessness, whether transient or chronic, you can contact the National Coalition for Homelessness, The National Homelessness Law Center, or your state or county Department of Human Services to find resources in your area.

Diz and Alicia discuss the overwhelming amounts of hopelessness we're surrounded by in punk rock, society, and the world in general and why hope combined with what you do and/or say matters.
