Fellow Veterans and Friends of Veterans
Please join the 339th consecutive Sunday Rally of the Veterans Revolution to "Save Our Veterans Land" and to "Bring Our Homeless Veterans HOME" as we also pay special tribute to the life of Wendell Brown, a Disabled Vietnam War Veteran who spent the majority of his adult life as a homeless Veteran in West Los Angeles.
Join as we honor him and his service to our country and his unique talent as a Poet.
His legendary poem, "Ballad of a Bushman" told about his life as a homeless Veteran whose home was the neighboring bushes and how they were an important part of his life. See attachments.
Wendell passed away about the same time our government maliciously destroyed the last vestige of shelter bushes outside the VA where homeless Veterans would sleep. It's conceivable that Wendell died of a broken heart as he had such reverence for the bushes and what they meant to him and other homeless Veterans.
“I pray for bushes. Let them be
they make a “home” for now, for me.”
