Our family is homeless.

There are four of us. My husband, myself, and our two teenage boys.

We sleep in our car, in Walmart parking lots or rest stops.

We are on the waiting list for the local shelter and for other housing locally.

My oldest son has autism. I am permanently disabled due to an accident in 2011 that has left me unable to work. My husband suffers from crippling anxiety, depression and ptsd.

I get social security for my injury, and I worked from age 16 to my accident in 2011. (2/8)
We are still working on reapplying my son for benefits, and my husband as well. We are as connected to resources as we can be. We are connected to the schools, to dshs, and local shelters. We are still working on getting connected with possible helpful churches. (3/8)

1/ Each week, we dig into the most important stories in hate.

This week: Violence against Sikh Americans, Trump officials’ ties to white nationalism and the numbers behind the South African white genocide propaganda. revealnews.org/blog/the-hate-…
2/ Over the span of three days in August, two Sikh American men were violently attacked in California’s Central Valley.

Surjit Singh Malhi told the @nytimes that two men assaulted him from behind as he was putting up political signs in his neighborhood. nytimes.com/2018/08/06/us/…
3/ “You don’t belong here,” they reportedly yelled during the attack. When he returned to his truck after the attack, he found “Go back to your country,” scrawled on the vehicle.
