"Wenn ich Kultur höre ...


Like any town or city these days the Kulturstadt has its share of homeless and down-on-their-luck folks sheltering in doorways or under the BHS mosaic, always managing to be just out of sight under cardboard or heaps of scruffy bedding. I believe last year these people were being encouraged to volunteer for the year of fun so as not to feel excluded and "be part of the exciting stuff". Judging by my own eyes I don't think that has been too successful. 

The weekend in black and white is here.

  1. Telling, and rather depressing. "Fun" doesn't seem to be on the cards for those without homes.

  2. God have mercy on the homeless, many don't.

  3. I think small towns are more sympathetic but have fewer resources. Citizens in big cities get used to seeing homeless people and just turn away.

  4. The bigger the city, the more they are seen, I think. I do hope somebody comes up with a solution to the problem.
