Person Tackling Homelessness: Max Rameau Is Providing Shelter In Foreclosed Homes In Miami!


Max Rameau has a rescue plan that didn't come from Washington. He is putting homeless people in foreclosed homes. While everyone is bailing out the rich, Rameau is concerned with giving a life line to the poor. He is a serious activist who has a history of helping squatters. He's even been called the squatter's realtor. I believe that he is actually the people's hero. The video contains a interview with him. Here's more about Max Rameau's plan of action to help the homeless in Miami from MSNBC:
"Rameau is an activist who has been executing a bailout plan of his own around Miami's empty streets: He is helping homeless people illegally move into foreclosed homes.

"We're matching homeless people with people-less homes," he said with a grin.
Rameau and a group of like-minded advocates formed Take Back the Land, which also helps the new "tenants" with secondhand furniture, cleaning supplies and yard upkeep. So far, he has moved six families into foreclosed homes and has nine on a waiting list."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the whole article here:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28002276/
