Do you know what it's like hearing impoverished black women talk about you as if you're a fantastic person?



Actually, it was only one; a homeless woman in 2018 talking about how you had turned Coachella into Beychella. 

I couldn't help saying "Beyonce is a bad person.  All of those people are bad people."

She was shocked.  She probably thought I was being racist.  I didn't tell her "We're all being filmed by hidden, illegal cameras in the Pine Street Inn locker room, bathrooms, showers and possibly sleeping areas," because then she also would have thought I was crazy.  

Homeless people don't talk about famous people that much.  We all know that the rest of the world isn't concerned about us as long as we're not in the way, and that nothing changes for homeless people from year to year, decade to decade, and administration to adminstration.
