Stephen Fry's 7 Deady Sins - I will take each one of the Seven Sins in turn, lay them out on the surgical table and poke, prod, pry and provoke in an attempt to try to anatomise and understand them; I hope and believe it will be, if nothing else, delicious fun and something of a change from the usual run of podcastery.

In August of 1619, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. America was not yet America, but this was the moment it began.

On the 400th anniversary of this fateful moment, it is time to tell the story. “1619” is a New York Times audio series hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones.

"More Americans Are Ending Up Homeless - at a Record Rate." See WSJ.
Sign up here to stay updated with the launch of HbN's upcoming podcast: a special series on the Middle East, in-depth history and analysis.
From San Francisco and LA to Texas and Florida, to New York, and then back to Montana... this is the history behind America's homelessness crisis.
In this episode, I ask my guest, Prof. Maria Foscarinis, the following questions:
- Prior to recent times, did America suffer from a crisis of mass homelessness? (Hint: Hoovervilles).
- How does our current homelessness crisis compare to the past?
- How did we get to this current moment?
- How did Presidents Reagan, Bush and Clinton change our attitudes and laws toward homelessness?
- Is homelessness a Republican or a Democratic problem?
- As a nation, should we deal with homelessness at the national or local level?
- Were there studies that showed a larger proportion of homeless people caught COVID in comparison to the general population?
- If you wanted our audience to remember just one point about “homelessness”, what would it be?
Prof. Foscarinis is a lecturer at Columbia Law School, where she serves on the Public Interest/Public Service Council. She is the founder and former executive director of the National Homelessness Law Center.
Before founding the National Homelessness Law Center, she established and directed the Washington, D.C. office of the National Coalition for the Homeless. To learn more about her, visit her academic homepage.
Special Announcement: we are launching a Middle East podcast series. So sign up for HbN's weekly newsletter, where we'll inform you of the launch of our upcoming podcast on Middle East in-depth history and analysis.
I hope you enjoy this episode.
