Understanding Homelessness
My Name Is Not "Those People"
This video presentation was shown at Building Changes' Benefit Luncheon on May 5, 2009. It features a powerful poem about homelessness by Julia K. Dinsmore, as read by Danny Glover -- from the CD, Give US Your Poor - 17 New Recordings to End Homelessness -- and photographs by Lynn Blodgett from the book, Finding Grace: The Face of America’s Homeless.
Ms. Dinsmore's poem, My Name Is Not "Those People," is included in her compelling book, My Name Is Child of God ... Not "Those People": A First-Person Look at Poverty (Augsburg Fortress Publishers).
(Video produced by Terence Brown of Slantyhouse Productions for Building Changes.)
