Troubled Utopia

|

"I was naive," says Bryan Pollard, one of the founders of an experimental tent community for the homeless in Portland, Oregon. "I mean, people who are housed and have reasonably stable lives are not able to live in a healthy communal way–so how dare we expect society's most traumatized, most abused and most injured to do it?" Fascinating story, with human nature playing its familiar reoccuring role.
