    Madrid Tenants’ Union: The Revolutionary Potential of the Housing Struggle

    Valeria Racu of El Sindicato de Inquilinas de Madrid joins us to discuss the history of the housing struggle in Spain and the revolutionary potential of organising tenants.  The Madrid Tenant’s Union was the first of its kind when it was established in 2017. Since then it has grown in size and impact, winning major victories such as that against the giant private equity firm, Blackstone.  We speak about the unique legacy of Spain’s homeownership model in the wake of the 2008 financial crash, the generational wealth gap locking the young out of the property market, and the surprising advantage this can offer the left in a moment of low labour union density.  Support El Sindicato de Inquilinas de Madrid: https://www.inquilinato.org/ https://linktr.ee/SindicatoInquilinasMadrid Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/PRAXISPOD Follow us on Instagram: @praxis_pod Follow us on Twitter: @PRAXIS_Pod Music by: https://www.jamierosswork.com/ Hosted on Acast.

    MASI: A decade of fighting Ireland's asylum policy

    Lucky Khambule joins us to discuss his work with the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland (MASI). Ireland's asylum system of 'direct provision' has drawn criticism for its use of for-profit reception centres to house those awaiting a determination on their asylum claim, which has sometimes taken upwards of 10 years. Lucky, along with a number of other activists, took over the reception centre they were living in in 2014. They demanded improved living conditions and won. This then developed into a nationwide campaign known as the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland. Visit MASI's website to support their work: https://www.masi.ie/ Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/PRAXISPOD Follow us on Instagram: @praxis_pod Follow us on Twitter: @PRAXIS_Pod Hosted on Acast.
