Join in a discussion with J.R. Fleming, Toussaint Losier, and other Anti-Eviction Campaign activists, attorney Edward Voci, and Ben Austen, author of the NYT article,

“The Death and Life of Chicago*”

*http://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/02/magazine/how-chicagos-housing-crisis-ignited-a-new-form-of- activism.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

Chicago has a shortage of 120,000 units of affordable housing and some 100,000 people sleeping in shelters or on the street each year. J.R. Fleming calls this a moral crisis rather than a housing crisis. Please come and explore the intersection of issues of homelessness, lack of affordable housing, and the mortgage foreclosure crisis in Chicago.
