- Description
- SUMMARY OF INTERVIEW: In this interview, Claire Davis talks with Alexis Lindsay, the Special Events and Communications Manager at Covenant House Washington. Ms. Lindsay talks about why youth come to Covenant House and the demographics of the homeless youth population in Washington, DC. Ms. Lindsay also reflects on how to end youth homelessness and the types of services that Covenant House Washington provides for youth. PROJECT’S OBJECTIVES: The interviews conducted as part of the DC Oral History and Social Justice Project record how unhoused residents of the greater DC area view the history of homelessness – how did homelessness become such an entrenched part of the city. The interviews will be used to create critical dialogue among people who are currently unhoused in Washington, DC, and then they may be used to assist future advocacy efforts.

- Description
- Buddy Moore, former Park View resident, talks about his time living in the neighborhood. Born and raised in the Cardozo area, Buddy moved to Park View to raise his family. He reflects on the drug epidemic that hit in the neighborhood in the 1980s, and discusses forming an Orange Hat group to educate those in the neighborhood doing "negative things." He feels that this group made a difference in cutting down the violence in the neighborhood.
