Just finished “: and Profit in the City,” by Matthew Desmond

He says it’s not his intent to unduly villainize any particular group, and I believe him. But it brought back a lot of memories from my chaotic youth in trailer parks and I’m pretty ready to hate some fucking landlords

@Sophie
So much injustice is highlighted in that book. What really stuck with me was the class/race separated rental market where people of the "right" demographic pay the same rent for a nice flat as someone from the "wrong" one pay for an absolute dump in a different part of town.
