I have a few moments to write so pardon the rush job.
We just finished shooting short docs for The Homelessness Marathon. We arrived back at the hotel we're staying at where Kevin and Erin are starting to log and capture footage from today's interview with Jeremy Alderson, AKA Nobody, founder and host of The Homelessness Marathon and other incredible community activists.
Seeing the devastation from Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Gustav has been troubling. Knowing that so many people are without homes, stuck in MEMA trailers they're about to lose to a state whose bureaucracy has failed the people should compel all people to action.
This week I read an article in The Nation that discussed the term Kafkaesque. The government's massive failure to release money to the survivors of Katrina in Mississippi is a glaring reminder of how dysfunctional bureaucracies fail people.
We're all tired but excited for Monday night's broadcast that will be available on Dish 9415 and freespeech.org.
We're off to chill out. More updates later.
