Well I have witnessed discrimination first hand this week! A friend of mine was illegally evicted from public housing. He really can't read is disabled and a veteran! The head of housing has been harassing him since 2016 when she took over! She recently took him to court
for "failure to pay rent" . She told the court he owed over $900 and that he has not paid any rent! Well we went thru all of his paperwork and as of 2015 he had a $0 balance December 31. The rent started to climb as if he was being charged double rent! This is in 2016.
Fast forward to last month and he's served eviction papers! We turned in a complaint to HUD and normally it's sent to Atlanta this time it was sent to Memphis! Memphis does not cover east Tennessee! We were able to get him a month or two. Tuesday he was served a notice
from the sheriff's office that he had to be out of the apartment by Thursday at 1030 am. They changed the locks have banned him from the projects and is now homeless! This eviction is still being investigated by HUD and we don't think they even know! They will tomorrow!
