📽 #ArtIsAWeapon @kenburnspbs Presents "East Lake Meadows: A Public Housing Story" premieres tonight 3.24 at 8:00PM EST on @pbs and streaming at www.pbs.org (check local listings) #EastLakePBS _______________________ VIA www.pbs.org About the Film In 1970, the Atlanta Housing Authority opened a public housing community on the edge of the city called East Lake Meadows. Over the next 25 years, many thousands of low-income Atlantans, mostly African American, would call it home. Shoddy construction and a lack of funding left the project and surrounding landscape in disrepair and led to a rapid decline in the quality of life. As public housing in America became increasingly stigmatized and abandoned, and a crack wave swept through the neighborhood, East Lake Meadows became nearly uninhabitable, but residents nonetheless found ways to overcome violence and neglect, raise kids, find work, and create moments of joy. In the mid-1990s, Atlanta bulldozed East Lake Meadows to make way for new mixed-income housing, as government and philanthropic funds poured into the area in an effort to create a thriving community. Through the stories of the former residents, East Lake Meadows: A Public Housing Story gives voice to some of the most marginalized people in our society and raises critical questions about how we have created concentrated poverty and limited housing opportunity for African Americans, and what responsibility we have as a people to ensure decent housing for our most vulnerable citizens. _______________________ #Documentary #PBS #PublicHousing #Poverty #PovertyInAmerica #AffordableHousing #Atlanta #KenBurns #SarahBurns #DavidMcMahon #documentarians #DocumentaryFilm #BlackGirlFilmGeeks🤓 #ArtIsAWeapon https://www.instagram.com/p/B-IJRQ5gIxD/?igshid=17d8f2gug5v36

"Azucar!" That was Sergio's catchphrase for the day! This brother was happy! He lightened the mood. Very beautiful also despite the circumstances. I had to capture him. I asked for the photo and he obliged. . . . . #umisays #urbansophicate #iamumi #blackcool #umifeeds #morethanjustfood #homelessness #doinggood #dogood #homelessinmiami #philanthropy #umifeedsmiami #womensupportingwomen #friendship #miami #bekind #makeadifference #nonprofit #hunger #povertyinamerica #poverty #socialgood #socialentreprenuer #lovewhatyoudo #nourishment #takecareofyourown #feedthedeed #bethechange #alifeofintention #smallacts (at Miami, Florida)

My family and I have been traveling by car through the Midwest for three weeks now. It has been great visiting friends and family. I have also enjoyed what Mother Nature has to offer. But I feel need to mention that every small town we drove and every city through or stopped in had some number of empty and decaying buildings and homes. The indication of poverty is stark. You can feel the sense of abandonment. #charlesheppner #povertyinamerica

This really rings true...while we hadn't researched the stats on this specific fact yet, there have been more and more women experiencing homelessness I've personally talked to and the problem was abuse and having to escape the situation. Please try to remember there are sooo many different circumstances that can lead to this epidemic through no fault of the person's own. It could happen to you... #Repost @homelessfriend ・・・ It's time we help bring awareness to the real reasons why people are homeless. Close to 70% of the population is within three lost checks or pay days of being homeless. 🙏 ❤🙏 🙏❤🙏 Show Your Support.

While Umi Feeds was in Miami hosting "Soulful Sunday Looking Like Big Momma's", around the same time my other sister friends were hosting Umi's Mobile Market. This weekend was a big weekend for Umi Feeds! I was getting calls and messages to pick up food in addition to delivering food. With me being in Miami I wasn't able to take on all that was offered. However, when you have the support that I have things get done! I am so thankful for these sisters and brother right here! We had four food pickups and they were able to make it all happen! A special thanks go out to you Nyemay, I don't know what I would do without you! You ALWAYS make it happen, even when you're not physically there! I sincerely thank you! Sister Omi, ever since I met you a few months ago, you were down for the cause. I appreciate it and you! Martha, another one that since I met you the amount of support you have shown Umi Feeds is tremendous! I am completely thankful to you! Brother Calvin, Buddy, thank you for stepping in and doing what is necessary to get things done! I also thank you, Jamie, for your continuous support and for sharing Umi Feeds with your friends and family. I love you all for it. I got a last minute request to bring food to a family in need. Of course, the request would come while I was out of town! I sent the message to the group and Nyemay made it happen! They packed a large box of food and delivered it to this particular family. I got a message letting me know how grateful she was. I am eternally thankful and grateful for the supportive team that I have. I am fortunate. . . . . #umisays #urbansophicate #iamumi #blackcool #umifeeds #morethanjustfood #ubuntu #suburbanpoverty #doinggood #dogood # #philanthropy #womensupportingwomen #friendship #bekind #support #makeadifference #nonprofit #hunger #povertyinamerica #poverty #socialgood #socialentreprenuer #lovewhatyoudo #nourishment #takecareofyourown #feedthedeed #bethechange #alifeofintention #smallacts (at Atlanta, Georgia)
