They Call Me “Clean-Up”
|
| James Boatner has a grizzled beard, a giant shopping cart and an unusual street name. Residents of West Oakland know him simply as "Clean-Up", because that’s what he does. The soft spoken homeless man spends his days sweeping the streets he has lived on for over 15 years. He is a familiar face in the neighborhood and beloved by its children. In this short film, 71-year-old "Clean-Up" speaks with quiet dignity about his life on the streets and his dream of writing a memoir that will give the world a window into what it means to be homeless. |
