Join us for a conversation about comparative ethnographic research looking at tenant organizing around two sites of extreme housing exploitation in Vancouver, BC and Atlanta, Georgia. Drawing on two examples of legal "wins" for increased tenant protections and rent control, Daniela will discuss how approaches directed toward achieving legal protections can potentially backfire against the most vulnerable residents. Through this discussion, she will explore what a politics of deep relationality can contribute to tenant organizing.
