It's people like Tex who get displaced during police sweeps. He's fighting cancer so he avoid large crowds such as what you can find at the shelter. He used to stay at the courthouse but following protests that's not possible anymore. He was recently hit by a car. His cards are down, but Tex, who got his nickname from his Texas base, hasn't stopped fighting, whatever life and the world throws at him. Our reporter for this episode is Lucia Starbuck.
