Life on the Streets: A Candid Interview with a Homeless Woman Discussing Portland's Growing Crisis
Welcome to the harsh reality that is Portland's homelessness crisis, an issue so outlandish it makes Area 51 look like a guided museum tour. In a city known for its hipster coffee shops and artisanal donuts, we've got a completely different, less appetizing menu: tent-dwellers and, as one homeless woman puts it, "zombies." She contrasts the situation in the city by referring to areas around the Blanche House as a "blessing," while labeling other zones as essentially life-sapping wastelands.
While Portland's city council pontificates on "humane approaches" to the issue, everyday folks are confronting something that's far from humane. The city's streets have become a dystopian theater where the actors are real and the stakes are high. And though some will go to great lengths to achieve that euphoric state, you have to wonder if the leadership's grand plans are achieving any high—unless it's a high level of ineptitude.
