Skyrocketing rents, unliveable cities, growing displacement— in Push (2019), director Fredrick Gertten and (now former) UN Special Rapporteur Lelani Farha take a critical look at the global housing crisis and the role of financial actors in burgeoning inequity. Gertten and Farha lead us through these challenges across geographies — and create solutions that push back against the commodification of housing. Join us for the screening and post-film critical discussion. Snacks provided!
