I talk to a guy named Mike who lives in Ohio. He's around 50. After a few conversations, I find out that he lived in a van until someone helped him move into subsidized housing. Now he has a place, but no money for furniture. He's living with serious health problems (back, eyes, anxiety)...

It's old news now. But the comments on HuffPo. Damn. A lot of anonymous white people are offended by what Chris Rock said. But I read something else that was interesting: Apparently less than 5% of the black population was imprisoned. I wanted to look this up, and sure enough, out of 38.9...
