I am still processing yesterday’s conversation — it was so, so powerful. I am grateful to Community Economic Defense Project and Matthew Desmond for their work, and proud of my community for all the ways we continue to organize, build, dream, and fight. #coleg #copolitics
Thanks for having me out! It was wonderful to learn about the important work that Community Economic Defense Project is doing in Colorado.
Register to join @Just_Shelter—Sociologist Princeton University, Contributing writer NYT Magazine, Principal Investigator @EvictionLab—for #IdeasAtFord to discuss the morally urgent problem of US poverty, which is at a greater level than any other advanced democracy.
“It is worse than I thought — it’s worse than I think many people will have expected.” New research from Eviction Lab shows precisely how many adults and children are evicted each year. Paper coming soon... Via The New York Times The Upshot nytimes.com/2023/10/02/ups…
Reallly looking forward to this conversation TONIGHT with Darren Walker at Ford Foundation
