Do you think you’d recognize your family if you passed them on the sidewalk? It seems an easy yes, but this video may cause you to stop and reconsider.
In this emotional video from the New York Rescue Mission, family members agreed to adopt the appearance of a homeless person as their loved ones walked by. They then showed those unknowing family members the footage of them passing their loved one, and the experience seems to bring a community problem into the realm of the deeply personal.
