Floored 1. On a recent foundation-funded trip to DC, I was starkly reminded of America's growing economic divide. Jen walking past unhoused person sleeping on street with jewelry store window in the background 2. While people slept on the sidewalk nearby, I was put up in a hotel that catered to every conceivable human desire for comfort* *a rare occurrence Jen in large bed with high thread count sheets and mints on the bedside table. Thought balloon reads "This is so great." 3. The next night, I found myself sleeping on an airport floor alongside hundreds of people whose flights were canceled. Jen uncomfortably lying on airport floor using a backpack as a pillow. Outside the window it is snowing on the tarmac Thought balloon: "I would never survive on the streets." At least I still had access to bathrooms and $15 prepackaged sandwiches. 4. It occurred to me that this is the only public space where it's socially acceptable to have no place to sleep. Wide shot of several people lying on airport floor and flopped on chairs ... a tiny bourgeois taste of the real thing.
