The book Evicted by Matthew Desmond depicts both individual encounters and society based data. It is intriguing to peruse and find out about how different landlords manage diverse situations. As our class examined the book in class my main question regarding the book was the means by which the a portion of the landlords did not put into thought how troublesome the tenants lives might be. We see that one specific landlord, Sherenna, has a decent heart and looks after her occupants. Sherrena demonstrates straightforward demonstrations of generosity through the story to demonstrate that she cares.

Desmond really got me to understand what people go through everyday out in Milwaukee. A strength in this book was the information on things occurring everyday that people wouldn't really think about. One thing I learned about was the hardships that landlords have to go through. Landlords are the ones who get hit hard when something goes wrong with the building. They have to pay out of pocket themselves to pay for the damages. They also are allowed to evict those who fail to pay rent. In this book, that is a lot of residents. I also learned the reason why most people fail to pay rent. It is really hard for people to find jobs. “Between 1979 and 1983. Milwaukee’s manufacturing sector lost more jobs than during the great depression, about 56,000 (24)”. ‘Black poverty rate rose to 28% in 1980. And by 1990 in rose to 42% (24).” All the jobs were being given to people who were white. The white prospered as the black sank hard. I think the book does a great job in feeding me new information that I never knew. I did not fully understand why rent was so hard to pay. This strength made this book informational in my

After reading chapters 4 through 6 in Matthew Desmond’s Evicted it was very interesting to learn about the goals and stories of those affected in the book. In chapter 4, Desmond focuses on a trailer park owner, Tobin Charney who is told by the Common Council that he has to begin evicting some of his tenants. Throughout this chapter, it is evident to recognize how Desmond focuses on how the city has been threatening to close down Charney’s trailer park if he did not follow through with evicting his tenants, who were known as troublemakers. Two of the noted people from the book were Pam and Ned. Pam had a very tough childhood and upbringing which led to her becoming a crack addict. The eviction of Pam and Ned was an important part of the chapter because Tobin filed for eviction against his tenants for not paying the rent. Tobin originally gives them 28 day notice but he managed to get them out in 5 days. This chapter was eye-opening because of the way Tobin reacted to his tenants, particularly Pam and Ned. I believe Tobin reacted like this because he was afraid to lose his trailer park to the town and cause problems with the council. Also it was eye-opening to see that Tobin only evicted this couple and not others who did not pay their rent, and in my opinion he did that because they were deemed as troublemakers. Later on in the chapter the goals that I noticed were that Tobin evicted Pam and Ned because of them being seen as troublemakers but used the reason of violations which covered that up.

The Black Wall Street, Harlem Renaissance, Great Migration, and Great Depression are all period that came in mind, while reading this novel. To begin, the novel presented aspects of The Great Depression and Great Migration because it represented African American people escaping from the poverty, segregation, racism, violence, and lack of job opportunities they were exposed to in the South by migrating to the North. The novel itself represents The Harlem Renaissance because it was written when importance of literature during the time period for the African American people and the Black experience was growing. To continue, the Brothers throughout the novel were reminded of their class and race, which made them constantly aware of who they were and where they came from. This can be related to modern day Black men who experience poverty because they ar

Unfortunately, the loss of housing occurs frequently and takes a psychological toll on the people affected by depression. Desmond displays how Arleen is very troubled when she gets evicted, thrown into the cold, and stranded with nothing. It takes a toll mentally when she realizes she has no home to get away from the cold, but also the eviction will be on her record for the next move. When people get evicted there is so much going against them, that mentally they can’t keep up and become depressed. Desmond describes the depression of a Hispanic woman and her three children during an eviction. At first, she had “borne down on the emergency with focus and energy,” then she started wandering the halls “aimlessly, almost drunkenly, her face had that look, the movers and the deputies knew it well”(125). Desmond adds, “It was the look of someone realizing that her family would be homeless in a matter of hours”(125). With vivid imagery, Desmond truly shows the mindset of a woman who knows she lost everything. Eviction scars people and that it makes a lasting mark on how they mentally feel as if they are worthless.

Mathew Desmond’s “Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City” is an intensely violent book. Even though it doesn’t include any deaths or assaults, yet it creates a painful imagination of how the people in Milwaukee have been going through. Violence could be described in a broader extent, which syncs into the relationship between the tenants and the landlords. The story focuses on eight families, they are different in race. Some families have children.

Power determines everything, how someone is defined, how someone acts, and someone is. In “Domination and Subordination” by Jean Baker Miller, she shows both sides of inequality, a dominate and a subordinate. There are two types inequality, temporary and permanent. The film, The Apartment by Billy Wilder, starts off with a man, C.C.Baxter who is constantly allowing people to use his apartment for their own personal pleasures. Baxter gives in to his co-workers at the office to use his apartment and often risking his basic needs for survival, like sleep. Mr. Sheldrake, Baxter’s boss, has the authority to treat others how he wants to. Fran Kubelik, the elevator woman, Baxter and Sheldrake use everyday at work. Miss Kubelik tends to have a undercover relationship with Mr. Sheldrake. These characters relationships of temporary or permanent inequality define their dominant or subordinate behaviors.

Unknown and inexistent to the eyes of the middle and upper class, the deplorable conditions that the poor had been living in remained prevalent throughout the streets of New York City. Unsanitary and overcrowded tenements, massive numbers of children left out on the streets, brothels, and gambling dens (Oxford University Press 640) were just a few of the inhumane and dire aspects of New York City’s underworld that were in need of reform. After the start of the Civil War, New York city received great amounts of African Americans from the South. With the hopes of freedom and equal opportunities for all races in the North, many African Americans jumped at the opportunity to come to cities like New York, but when their expectations came face-to-face with reality, their dreams no longer ceased to exist. When it

Housing was the most serious community problem in Harlem. The Negro's labor dollar was further taken by the steep rental characteristic of the segregated areas where most Negroes lived. Ellison makes this quite clear to the audience as Scofield and Dupre steal coal oil and buckets from the hardware store and set them on fire in the apartment building where they live. They make sure to get everyone to safety before they burn the building down, shouting, "You didn't think I'd do it but there it is. You wouldn't fix it up. Now see how you like it." (Ellison 548). African American's were also treated unfairly in their living quarters. There are more examples of this mistreatment in the book when The Invisible Man awakens to the sound of tenants beating on the pipes, due to no heat, at Mary's apartment building and also the eviction of the elderly couple, the Provo's.

Eldridge was told of the proposed end, and prompted that he could ask for extra time to submit extra data with respect to his condition. Eldridge 's transcribed reply questioned one portrayal of his condition, and showed that the office as of now had enough data to verify his disability. The made its last decision to end assistances and told Eldridge that he could look for reevaluation within about six months. Eldridge depended on Goldberg v. Kelly (welfare advantages case) to back his dispute that it was unlawful to end his SSD assistances without a pre-termination hearing. The District Court held that Eldridge must be allowed a pre-end hearing, asserted by the Court of Appeals. “An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.”(Proverbs 18:15 ESV). The reader agrees with George

In my opinion, The Program had ended very abruptly and like nothing at all like I anticipated. I suspected that Sloane would actually be free from going back into the “program.” Instead, she and her old boyfriend James were forced back into the “program” without any option. They then began to plan an organized revolt against the “program.” I didn’t suspect this at all.

The excerpt we read from the book Evicted moved many people. It provoked powerful emotions and caused many to rethink they their feelings about the tails of told by far too many. Evicted the story of families on both side of the housing epidemic focusing on renters and landlords. I will be comparing my own views and using my experiences to gain a deeper understanding of: the people effected; the impact it has on families of both sides; the lesser and the lessee; the reason we are in this crises; and what can be done. Evicted is no doubt a piece that can stir the emotions of everyone who choices to sit down and read it.

Desmond reports the struggles Lamar has to face while dealing with eviction and what that means for him. In the story Desmond reports about a life changing accident that Lamar has overcome. On page 27 Lamar tells his story about how after leaving the navy he became addicted to the popular drug crack. Because of his addiction he lost his job and his apartment, after losing his apartment he was forced to move with him and his children to abandon houses and shelters. One winter Lamar was alone in an abandon house and was snowed in, freezing on the eight day Lamar jumped out of a window and woke up with both of his legs amputated. After that accident Lamar stayed away from crack, and started trying to get his life back together.
