- By supporting measures such as the Homeless Bill of Rights that affirm the right of homeless people to occupy public spaces, we lay the groundwork for a more robust campaign to advocate for the homeless. If we consider the homeless as members of our public, instead of wishing they would disappear, poverty and want will descend from the seat of abstraction and become part of our material reality. Only if we view the homeless as members of our communities will we be able to forge solidarity with them. This relationship could yield real structural change.
