Episode 1: The Great American Housing Crisis Organize This!

    • Politics

Welcome to Organize This!

In the pilot premiere for our new podcast. I (Secretary of the North New Jersey DSA) sit down with my brother (a former member of the Occupy Wallstreet movement) to talk about organizing. What is it? Why do we do it? How does it help us build a better world!

In this episode, we delve into the housing crisis in America, the exacerbations of our current system, how they've been amplified by the pandemic,  and we delve into a specific case of cruelty and housing injustice felt by the tenants of the Ivy Hill Apartments in Newark NJ.

This is our first episode and neither of us has ever done anything like this before. We take this on because we both believe it is important, and this is only the beginning. Ignore my awkwardness and our tech mishaps because, just like the movement, the only place we have to go from here is up!
