Scope and Contents

They are known as squatters or urban renewal outcasts. They believe that they are being forced out of the community today. One of Baltimore's urban renewal outcasts, Morning Sunday, who received a great deal of media attention when she refused to be evicted from her Fayette street home is interviewed. Many other low-income and elderly Baltimore citizens are finding themselves in the same dilemma, and they are also up in arms. Guests include Morning Sunday; Geneva Clark from the City Civil Rights Organization and housing advocate; Mary Benns from Baltimore Neighborhoods, Inc. Harold Anthony interviews Climax.
