COLLECTIVE INJUSTICE (VOLUME 15)SJSU: The Four Months of Hellfire (Jan. To 1st week of June 2017)- by Professor Dr. Mohamed Fayad

The first six months of living in the apartment were passed peacefully with- out any disturbances. However, after a while, I faced many problems when I moved to a new apartment. I met issues with the apartment owner due to negligence and delays in maintenance dates, which led to huge losses and damage to my stock of food inside the freezer for more than three months, which increased my financial burden. Moreover, the people there could have been more cooperative. They refused to carry my things or purchases into the apartment because it was on the second floor. Not to mention the racist behavior against me in emails and correspondence, as if there was an organi- zation or paid people behind it. To make matters worse, they sent me a petition from their attorney demand- ing 420$ in fees, which I had nothing to do with. I called my attorney for twenty minutes of legal advice over the phone for 110$. He advised me to pay the amount and that there was no need for problems because I would not be able to buy or rent a house if I did not pay. The amount has now reached one thousand dollars, in addition to the losses resulting from neglect of mainte- nance, estimated at five hundred dollars. It cost me over 1200$. The apart- ment rent is about three thousand dollars per month. You paid it on time. I have the case number filed against them at the police station because the apartment affected my health. Moreover, I asked them to repair it at my own expense. Still, they refused, and no one listened to me, so I decided to leave this place if I received all my dues in total and had an official certificate from them guaranteeing my residence in an apartment unsuitable for human living.
