We focus on Baltimore with a story about a West Baltimore family’s eviction that resulted from a zero-tolerance policy for subsidized homes. Sherman and Jean Thomas’ sons have drug-related criminal records and used their parents’ address and their own, prompting the eviction. To discuss the situation, this policy, and its impact on Baltimore communities, we’re joined by:
- Jean Thomas of the family facing eviction,
- Michelle Moore, community organizer for Communities United,
- Tessa Hill-Aston of the Baltimore NAACP,
- and Michelle Ewert, attorney at the Homeless Persons Representation Project
