Fed up with permanent housing crisis and real estate greed? Join the co-founder of the LA Tenants Union and co-author of Abolish Rent: How Tenants Can End the Housing Crisis for an in-depth discussion of the housing question and the resurgent tenant movement. Why do landlords claim the majority of our wages while they work only four hours a month? What if the housing crisis was a crisis of exploitation and domination? How can we turn the shared misery of paying rent into shared power to win the housing we deserve?
