Description
There is No Place for Us discusses the issue of the "working homeless" in America, where individuals with full-time jobs cannot afford housing due to rising rents, low wages, and inadequate tenant protections. This problem is especially evident in rapidly growing cities, where gentrification leads to displacement. In his book, Brian Goldstone explores the lives of five families in Atlanta who, despite working hard, struggle to maintain stable housing. Through personal stories, Goldstone highlights the human cost of this crisis, showing how these families, though employed, are forced to live in cars or temporary housing while continuing to work and pursue their aspirations. This situation reveals a broader, hidden aspect of homelessness, where many working individuals and families are excluded from official statistics and face severe housing instability, which will not be solved until housing is treated as a fundamental human right.
