Show Notes
We discuss why housing insecurity undermines our democracy. We cover the evolution from Reagan, when homelessness was blamed on the individual, to the increasing recognition that housing is a human right.
Maria's civic action toolkit recommendations are:
-
Be an advocate against criminalization and call your representatives
-
Join the https://housingnothandcuffs.org/ campaign
