In New York City, which has some of the highest rents in the nation, people living with HIV/AIDS are often forced to sacrifice medicines and food in order to pay for housing. According to various data, many chronically ill patients are forced to survive on as little as $12 a day. "The passage of this legislation will guarantee critically needed housing stability for those whose health care is suffering," said Terri Smith Corona, vice president for Housing Works. It is absolutely unacceptable that any single person suffers as a result of the District not being able to manage taxpayer dollars," said Mercedes Marquez, HUD's assistant secretary. In a statement to the press last month after specifics of the Washington Post investigation were made public, Marquez added, "This is where they p...

[Bill Cosby]'s comments are no different than what we've heard coming from spokespersons from the police department and politicians after a shooting in Durham. How often have we heard, "It's OK, people! Don't worry. It happened over in 'those people's' neighborhood, and you're safe as long as you don't go over there." Let me translate. "Those people" do bad things, but "our people" don't have to worry as long as we keep distance from "those people. Those people" sell drugs, carry guns and shoot at each other.
