Itinerant-shoeshine-man--Center-City









"You've got to build hope / from the ground up! / Obama!" He sang while working. "You need a strong foundation," he explained. "Like what I'm doing. I work on a man's foundation," meaning shoeshining. He's been doing it for 27 years, but business was awful this day. He said he had been locked up recently for returning a lost purse. All the IDs and credit cards were there, but some money was missing, apparently. "But I didn't steal it. I've always worked for my money!" He has seven children.
