Shelter in Place: LA’s fight for housing in a pandemic | 斷層線

When COVID-19 started coursing through the US state of California and staying at home became the safest thing to do, some homeless people took bold action: They found empty houses and moved in.

In Los Angeles, a group called the Reclaimers have twice tried to take over vacant state-owned properties to use them for housing.
