PTH on WNYC's Brian Lehrer Show again
Submitted by admin on Wed, 06/24/2009 - 19:38.
On June 23, PTH represented again on the Brian Lehrer Show on WNYC radio. As part of the Show's "Uncommon Economic Indicators" coverage of the current crisis -- and echoing Barbara Ehrenreich's recent New York Times piece "Too Poor to Make the News" -- the segment highlighted the practice of doubling up. PTH'ers Letitia Ledan and Russell Pinsley spoke about having to crowd into apartments in a context of low incomes and high rents. While tens of thousands of New Yorkers sleep on the street or in shelters, hundreds of thousands more are doubled-up without a home or space of their own. Check out the audio here!
In case you missed it, PTH'er Rob Robinson was on the Brian Lehrer Show a month ago.... [video & audio]
