With unsparing analysis and striking stories of resistance, this deeply reported account of the resurgent tenant movement centers poor and working-class people who are fighting back, staying put, and remaking the city in the process. Rent drives millions into debt and despair and onto the streets, but tenants can harness our power and make the world our home. Together, we'll learn from the book, share our experiences as tenants and organizers, and discuss how to create a world where rent doesn't exist. We will meet biweekly for 4 sessions (3/12, 3/26, 4/9 and 4/23). For this first session, we'll discuss the introduction, chapter 1 and 2 (pages 1-56). While we hope you're able to do the reading before the meeting, we welcome all regardless of how much you're able to read. https://actionnetwork.org/events/nationwide-abolish-rent-reading-group-session-1
