Abstract
I first met Mona at a meeting of the Women’s Housing Equality and Enhancement League in June of 2006. That same evening, I ran into her and a female friend outside of Angeline’s. Both Mona and her friend were staying at the emergency shelter there. We struck up a conversation on the street and then walked down to a nearby sandwich shop, where I conducted the first of my several formal taped interviews with Mona between 2006 and 2008.
