That’s why it makes me sad to see fancy malls and gated mansions where our home used to be. It makes me sad that they evicted us for being dark-skinned and working class, because you know that’s why they did it, right? The government called it “revitalizing the historic district,” but the honest-to-God truth is they wanted us out because we were ugly and poor. But we have a right to a roof over our heads, even if we are as poor as we look.
