At this session, we will discuss some concepts from the book, &#8216;In Defence of Housing&#8217;, which is a manifesto against the commodification of housing, combined with other material to prompt discussions on issues of housing struggle, private investment, residential alienation, class, and resistance. This drop-in session is intended for anyone looking to engage with housing justice, and that includes non-CATU members. This event will take place at the Public Access Library at the centre of the Fictions, Frictions &amp; Evictions Exhibition.
