 95341\n\n***\n\nAbout the author and book:\n\nMike Rhodes is the author of 
 Dispatches from the War Zone, homelessness in Fresno from 2002 – 2015. 
 His extensive coverage of this issue, as editor of the Community Alliance 
 newspaper, defended homeless people’s human rights and led to significant 
 changes in public policy.\n\nRhodes was a key organizer in a 2006 class 
 action lawsuit by the homeless against the City of Fresno. The $2.3 million 
 settlement forced the city to stop bulldozing homeless encampments and 
 compensated the homeless for their losses.\n\nThe ongoing coverage has 
 exposed public corruption, identified the homeless issue as a vital concern 
 in the community and highlighted alternative projects that provide the 
 homeless with the dignity and respect they deserve.\n\nAfter leaving the 
 Community Alliance newspaper, Rhodes wrote Dispatches from the War Zone.
