artdoc June=1991
A new report from the London Housing Unit says that homeless
families in temporary accommodation are suffering serious
harassment, violent attacks, racist abuse and illegal evictions
at a rate of four or five a week. Research shows that black
families were three times more likely to be made homeless than
whites. (Times Educational Supplement 25.9.90)
