American Red Cross Hero Awards & Evictions: Landlords' Perspective

Credit: zimmytws/shutterstock.com

All this week on The Sound of Ideas, as part of the community-wide discussion of the book "Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City" we've been talking about eviction and its impact on low-income renters, and the community. We've heard from tenant advocates, but not much so far from landlords. This morning, we'll hear their perspective.  Plus, we'll meet a local American Red Cross Hero whose quick action saved a life.
