Tobin almost lost the park in May 2008 when the city council refused to renew his license. A young mother named Patrice Hinkston used to live in the unit upstairs from Lamar, but after being evicted has moved back downstairs with her mother, Doreen, and her younger siblings.Ĭollege Mobile Home Park in Milwaukee’s poor, majority-white South Side is owned by Tobin Charney and managed by Lenny Lawson and Susie Dunn, who is nicknamed Office Susie. He is currently in a dispute with Sherenna about work he performed for her, for which she’s refused to properly compensate him. One of her tenants, Lamar, is a single father of two boys who does not have legs. Sherenna was a teacher before becoming a professional landlord, running her business with her husband, Quentin. Evicted tells the story of the eviction epidemic in America, focusing on eight families in Milwaukee. After more moves, Arleen and the boys eventually move into an apartment with a black landlord named Sherenna Tarver. They move into a homeless shelter called the Lodge, then into a house on Milwaukee’s predominantly-black North Side, before being evicted again. During a cold January in 2008, Arleen Bell and her sons Jori and Jafaris are evicted from their apartment.
