I don't quite have words yet. I'm stunned, grateful, disoriented. My deepest, deepest thanks to the five families without whom this book would not exist. It has been the honor of my life to know and learn from you.

Fell twice in the past week and am concussed with broken bones in my left arm and hand. A bad week but certainly not my worst. Wrote about it here

Reading this, I’m reminded that, in the lead-up to the 1996 Olympics, Atlanta police pre-printed thousands of arrest citations with "homeless" and "African-American"—officers only had to fill in a name.

Ryan is one of the best human beings I know. I hope the folks back home make the right choice here.

Hi Bluesky friends: I wanted to share that my book, THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US, is coming out in March. Based on a half-decade of reporting, it examines the rise of America's "working homeless," following five Atlanta families desperate to secure housing in a gentrifying, increasingly unequal city.

Let this sink in: there’s not a single state, city, or county in America where someone with a disability who receives SSI can afford a one-bedroom apartment. SSI payments are capped at $943 a month nationwide. The average monthly rent is $1,399—or an astounding *148%* of an SSI recipient’s income.
