Jacobin Reading Group Discussion

Last month we read about a few socialist approaches to housing. This month, we’re going to take a deeper look at rent control and social housing.

So, we’ll be reading “Universal Rent Control Now” by Amee Chew and Katie Goldstein in the latest issue of Jacobin (https://jacobinmag.com/2019/06/universal-rent-control-now).

We’ll also be branching out from the magazine and taking a look at the People’s Policy Project report, “Social Housing in the United States” by Peter Gowan and Ryan Cooper (https://www.peoplespolicyproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/SocialHousing.pdf).

We’ll be meeting at the Montlake Meeting Room at the Montlake Library from 11:00 – 1:00 on August 17th.

See you then!
