When public land isn't public for all - 48 hills
Briefly

The experience of being houseless often leads to feelings of being invisible and unwanted, as societal structures prioritize certain bodies over others in public spaces.
Public spaces, labeled as open to all, often reflect underlying biases that exclude marginalized communities, leading to a painful irony for those seeking a place to belong.
The harassments faced by houseless individuals in public places underscore a hypocritical standard of 'publicness' that discriminates based on socioeconomic status.
Historical use of the term 'public' reveals a longstanding pattern of exclusion, typically targeting the most vulnerable groups, demonstrating the need for a broader understanding of communal spaces.
