Miscellaneous
Today I speak with a friend who works as an eviction defense attorney in NYC. She tells us about the current challenges that low-income tenants are up against, and gives a general overview of the housing crisis here. We discuss what a typical week is like for a housing lawyer and the importance of tenant organizing. We also touch upon the issue of food deserts and why those struggling with poverty might not be receptive to the message of the mainstream vegan movement.
