Barry is homeless living in a tunnel underneath Las Vegas

Barry has lived in a tunnel underneath Las Vegas for two months. The tunnels are massive storm drains running under the city. luckily, Barry has yet to experience a rainfall, but his bed and everything else is propped up several feet off the ground just in case.
It's hard to say how many people live in the storm tunnels beneath the neon. In a way, it's safer than living out in the extreme heat, yet in another, it's like living in a weird science fiction movie. Dark, dirty and completely different than the 'normal' world. I've been to lots of places where homeless people live, and going into the tunnels was a very surreal experience.
Like many homeless people, Barry is caught in the madness of bureaucracy. Because he has been to prison many Nevada social services won't help. And because he has only lived homeless for two months he is disqualified from others. Of course, finding work is near impossible.
That does not stop him from having dreams. He wants to go to culinary arts school. He wants to better his life. He wants to get out of the dark tunnels.

About Invisible People
There is a direct correlation between what the general public perceives about homelessness and how it affects policy change. Most people blame homelessness on the person experiencing it instead of the increasing shortage of affordable housing, lack of employment, a living wage or the countless reasons that put a person at risk. This lack of understanding creates a dangerous cycle of misperception that leads to the inability to effectively address the root causes of homelessness.
We imagine a world where everyone has a place to call home. Each day, we work to fight homelessness by giving it a face while educating individuals about the systemic issues that contribute to its existence. Through storytelling, education, news, and activism, we are changing the narrative on homelessness.
This isn’t just talk. Each year, our groundbreaking educational content reaches more than a billion people across the globe. Our real and unfiltered stories of homelessness shatter stereotypes, demand attention and deliver a call-to-action that is being answered by governments, major brands, nonprofit organizations, and everyday citizens just like you.
However, there is more work to be done on the road ahead. Homelessness is undoubtedly one of our biggest societal issues today and will only continue to grow if we don’t take action now.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the public about homelessness through innovative storytelling, news, and advocacy. Since our launch in 2008, Invisible People has become a pioneer and trusted resource for inspiring action and raising awareness in support of advocacy, policy change and thoughtful dialogue around poverty in North America and the United Kingdom.

Notice how he says his backpack had "money...some family recipes..." and that's it? lol nah. Barry is an addict whose mind is going. People don't like to admit that because it feels mean and dismissive, but it's a fucking fact.

Men just arent made the same as they were in my dads era. He raised me by himself and got custody of me in 1970. Men raising their children alone back in those days was a rarity, so much so that a magazine wrote a whole 3 page article on my father for doing so in the early 70s. Also, my dad had so many skills. He could, and has, built a house from the foundations up. He did EVERYTHING, the wiring, the plumbing, plastering, hanging doors etc ETC...EVERYTHING. He was a champion fisherman with trophies for it. He did up boats in his spare time, he fixed car engines, he could cook great, I could go on and on.

Barry, just saw your story today. Was so happy to hear you have gotten yourself out of the tunnel! See when one chooses to persevere and carry on no matter what kind of adversity they are facing, and works hard to dig themselves out anything is possible. So many stories do not turn out like yours did. I too had to scratch my way back into the light and it is so worth it. Many blessings to you Barry! Your story is very inspiring and insightful. I'm so very happy that you are doing well. Take care and thank you for sharing your story. 😄❤🙏
