A Demon From Hell

As soon as I said my name it was like she realized she was looking at a demon for the 7th level of hell. She exclaimed, "No!" She quickly shut and locked the door. I've had some people not appreciate my presence on their doorstep as I knock on what is now over 1000 voters' […]

Savannah

When they say Love Conquers All, this is what they mean right here. A couple years ago on some cold winter day I got a call from a 14 year old girl. She heard I knew her dad. So she reached out to me. I knew where he was. I went down to the Adams […]

If I put so much as one tent on my land this winter or any time going forward I will now face fines and jail time for doing so. This fact makes me realize EXACTLY how society feels about the houseless community. They are considered hated, diseased rats that must either COMPLY OR DIE. We […]

Homeless People Are Hated Like Jews Are Hated.

I have debated if the work I'm doing is similar to the Underground Railroad in Slave America or Jewish rescuers in Nazi Germany. The biggest disconnect between slaves and homeless people is that slaves were not being eradicated. They were property that slave holders wanted returned. Nazi extermination only wanted one thing: to wipe Jews […]

I Respond to: Steve Hilton: The homeless crisis is crippling America

1979, When I Was 7

I doubt I'll ever write an autobiography. It's like masturbating and asking people to watch. It's just a weird exercise for people who probably spent their entire lives looking for approval through some action they did. I'm not saying that I'm not one of those guys. I certainly am. But an autobiography just feels too […]

THE DRAW OF THE STREET

THE DRAW OF THE STREET Something we aren’t discussing much when we discuss homelessness and addiction is how the street pulls you in. And it’s not just homeless people, addicted people and drug dealers. It’s cops and homeless helpers and harm reduction people. It’s me. The street has a small amount of high risk. You […]

“Stop in the name of the law.”

The city is furious with me (again). They want to have an emergency meeting with the magistrate because “Sage is putting tents back on his land.” I’m not doing shit. This is what Akron policies look like. They wanted me to get rid of all the tents on my land. So I did. Then people […]

My jobs idea

In low-income communities in a city, IN GENERAL, women boost (they steal from stores) and men scrap metal. Copper wire is the ultimate prize. They burn off the outer coating of the wire so that it pays more. They are all making about $10-$40 a day. Most people refuse to fly a sign for money. […]
