Evicted by Matthew Desmond is a novel that tells the stories of families struggling to pay the rent in the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In this book, just like Missoula, the stories are intertwined with each other. So far the stories have followed two landlords: Sherrena Tarver and Tobin Charney. Sheerena owns property all over the predominantly black north side of Milwaukee. She is strong and caring, but I think she is not fair to her tenants.
After reading the story about Larry landlord and tenant Roger Renter, I feel like Roger should have inspected everything himself before moving in because sometimes owners will not tell you everything that is going on. Roger should have got the roof checked and looked at the ceiling in the apartment to see if anything seems like it has a leak, and if he saw something, he should have told the landlord and the landlord should have fixed the issue. Also, Roger should have made Larry wrote a covenant because he would have had some documentation that Larry stated he was going to repair the leak. For instance, when I and my finance moved to Valdosta in an apartment the manager of the apartments stated they checked all apartments.
“The Czar of all the Russias is not more absolute upon his own soil than the New York landlord in his dealings with colored tenants.

Matthew Desmond’s Evicted takes a sociological approach to understanding the low-income housing system by following eight families as they struggle for residential stability. The novel also features two landlords of the families, giving the audience both sides and allowing them to make their own conclusions. Desmond goes to great lengths to make the story accessible to all classes and races, but it seems to especially resonate with people who can relate to the book’s subjects or who are liberals in sound socioeconomic standing. With this novel, Desmond hopes to highlight the fundamental structural and cultural problems in the evictions of poor families, while putting faces to the housing crisis. Through the lens of the social reproduction theory, Desmond argues in Evicted that evictions are not an effect of poverty, but rather, a cause of it.
However, the developers and owners of the tenements do not care about anything except for their money. All they do is slap a coat of paint on the grotesque exterior without even thinking about the horrendous living conditions on the inside. The landlords do not care and will not help New York tenement occupants get out of their filth. They must work together. The tenants have to care about their conditions and develop some pride in their home.

My article is How to Fight Homelessness and the source is New York Times. I took it from editorial page and this article wrote by Mark. D Levine and Mary Brosnahan. In this article, I believe that the most important point is, The bill would make New York City the first in the nation to guarantee representation for tenants, and it would significantly decrease the number of families forced into homelessness here. The most common cause of their homelessness isn’t drug dependency or mental illness.
Based on this we can conclude that the mere image of being black is shattered and anywhere you go you will be judged as lower class. The fear created by the media make it seem like if you were to rent your home to a black descent, they’ll destroy your home or yet create a hostile environment and make it uncomfortable to other people. Another fear that sticks around with Africans Americans is that they “promote the gang lifestyle or are anti law enforcement” (Glassner 122). Though the realtor shuns African Americans from renting the homes they would not even rent/sale the home to a black family, even if they were well qualified, with higher incomes, and was willing to pay a higher down payment. From the book The Black Image in the White Mind by Andrew Rojecki and Robert Entman, they present us with white beliefs stating “the media conveys “problematic” images of African Americans even after decades of heightened awareness and vigilance to rid the media of stereotypes”.

However, many people believe he is no longer in the NFL because of his talent. Kapernick led the 49ers to Super Bowl 47.

In Erica’s mind being with Chris is the best moments of her life. She gives up on living any present or future moments since, to her, nothing can compare to the prefect moment of being with Chris that she created. For instance, in the first passage Changez analyzes the legitimacy of the relationship between Erica and Chris. Changez recognizes that it is possible that the relationship they shared could have been as real as Erica has made it out to be.
