Fear is becoming a constant companion to the residents living near 'The Pit', Portland, Oregon's notorious homeless camp. Imagine treading on eggshells every time you step out of your own home, threatened by hunting knives and violence, as experienced by Aliyah Maze and her neighbors, including a transgender individual who suffered a brutal attack. These are not just stories; they're a harrowing reality that we're peeling back to expose the grave safety concerns hanging over this city.
This episode also unearths the larger social implications of these encampments, with the city's resources being stretched to their limits. The city's attempts at prioritizing the removal of camps blocking sidewalks have been unsuccessful, and finding a solution becomes increasingly challenging with the drug addiction and criminal activity rampant in these camps. We also highlight the role of social media in bringing these issues to the forefront, and the crying need for stronger leadership and effective solutions. Join us, as we spotlight activist Kevin Dahlgren's brave attempts at documenting these dangerous encampments, and shed light on a dire social issue that is screaming for attention and resolution.
