Righteous Dopefiend



Righteous Dopefiend: Homelessness, Addiction and Poverty in Urban America runs until late May at the Penn Museum. Anthropologist Philippe Bourgois and photographer-ethnographer Jeff Schonberg document the daily lives of homeless drug users, drawing upon more than a decade of fieldwork they conducted among a community of heroin injectors and crack smokers who survive on the streets of San Francisco’s former industrial neighborhoods.
