A talk with Brian Goldstone will be taking place on Thursday, October 16, from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm ET. "The Lens Series: There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America" will be a powerful webinar featuring anthropologist, journalist, and acclaimed author Brian Goldstone. 

Drawing from his groundbreaking book, Goldstone sheds light on the hidden struggles of working families experiencing homelessness across the United States. Through vivid storytelling and on-the-ground research, he challenges common assumptions, reveals the economic forces driving families into precarious living conditions, and honors the resilience and humanity of those navigating them. 

Goldstone’s reporting has appeared in The New Yorker, Harper’s, The Atlantic, The New Republic, and more, blending ethnographic research with compelling narratives to examine inequality, labor, and housing in America today.
