While reading Voices from the Street one comment that really surprised me was when a woman shared, “I’d much prefer to be raped than become homeless, any day” (186). This comment really struck me for how brutal the situation of being homeless is. The women went on to share that when you are raped, you see it as someone else’s problem. Yet, when you are homeless, “everyone is judging you that you are no good… you begin to question everything you have ever done and how you got there” (186). I cannot even imagine the trauma this woman has suffered.
