HWWM 02 / Living homeless at Lake Merritt / by Mind•Space•Time

It has been a rainy month and that features prominently in this episode. The homeless crisis in Oakland seems to be at an extremely dire level. There have been many encampments stationed in and around the Lake lately. We talk with Casey Cummings and Maurice Boyce, two Oakland residents that are currently living homeless around Lake Merritt. We also hear the teardown and removal of dozens of encampments behind Fairyland, in the park's northwest side.
