David Rovics: The United Tent Cities of America

This Week with David Rovics: The United Tent Cities of America: I viscerally remember a particular protest I participated in with Portland Tenants United that involved using tents as a symbol of the impending homelessness that will result if the landlords keep on raising the rent the way they've been doing.  It's a common, useful symbol, that communicates well in a picture, a tent.  But there was that one protest when a bunch of actually homeless teenagers asked us, "what are you going to do with those tents when you're done?"
