Most of us (as blacks)to say the least, knows what it is to come up poor; so poor that the last two letters were dropped off making us “po”. Yet, here in America, the supposedly “greatest” country in the free world has some of the “greatest” insurmountable amount of homeless people aside from just poor people. Just alone in one of the largest cities in the United States (Los Angeles, California) there are over 80,000+ homeless people alone living in one downtown district area called, “Skid Row”. People of all walks of life and of every nationality try to survive down there. They’re single mothers (with and without their children), children without either parents or guardians there, the old, the young, the educated and the illiterate, those that have a piece of a job and those that can’t get a job. To say the least, there are also our veterans that after serving their country; risking life, body and soul to receive only a “thank you for your service on Veteran’s Day” and often times not even that. Bishop knows all too well both sides of the spectrum. He knows what it is to be homeless, hopeless, that no one cares and human-less, that your worth don’t count among the rest of society. I mean after all, isn’t it amazing how we care more about an animal than we do about human rights and human survival? Bishop grew up in the poorest conditions as most (African Americans) back in the day, in the red line districts of the ghettoes, with parents that hardly made enough money to make all ends meet. But he had a fight from within not to become a part of the status quo, but he did. However, he didn’t allow his circumstances to prevaricate the outcome. In his book, “Been There, Done Dat…Got the T-Shirt” he draws you into his world of beat down, pushed down, got up, knocked down and come back. A story of persistence, determination and will power of not giving up or letting go of the dream from within.
