I grew up on a farm. I know this all too well.
People who study farm safety discourage the use of the word “accident” because it “implies it’s an act of God. That it was random, a freak thing...If you ask anybody who understands this, you have an 8-year-old in a dangerous worksite: It’s something terrible waiting to happen.”

I volunteer for a nonprofit focused on food insecurity. Just got out of a meeting of 6 white faces planning an event for 50 white faces to discuss the problems of the black/brown community. That is such a problem.
FYI, the high in Minneapolis on Dec. 30 was 24 degrees F and the low was 16 (-4 / -9 C). Heartless doesn't even begin to describe it.
"About a dozen people were displaced from the eviction, the majority of them having all of their belongings thrown out in the dead of winter."
