I was utterly impressed with the ignorance of individuals. The film we watched last class got me thinking of how our society is built. Where do people get certain beliefs and stereotypes of homelessness? The film got me really upset. I saw the faces of many of my peers. The film opened my eyes greatly. How does America, or more specifically Santa Monica expect to decrease the number of homeless people when they refuse to help. What really triggered my thoughts and opinions was the political side of homelessness. I was truly surprised that a homeless person can run for mayor. I think I have been brain washed about things of that sort. This got me thinking about how people make assumptions of who can have leadership roles in America. I was sad that the guy didn’t win the elections but he proved a point. Many of the stories of the homeless people were in fact of stories of people that had jobs and unfortunately lost their belongings. Santa Monica to me is so different now. The way I perceive the city. I found it ridiculous that they want to arrest those people who are helping those who are suffering from hunger and homelessness. The city should be glad that there are people that are trying to help those homeless get out of the streets and simply try to survive. If they ever pass the law of considering that a felony I would be extremely surprised and upset. People should extend their hand and help fellow citizens. We are all humans and evening thinking that homeless people should die is inhumane. What makes me or anyone else superior to others. NOTHING.
