A HOME WORTH FIGHTING FOR: THE PUSH TO STOP THE DEMOLITION OF PUBLIC HOUSING IN CHELSEA
December 13
5:30 PM
The People’s Forum – 320 W. 37th Street, New York, NY
Through the eyes of longtime residents fighting to save their homes, A HOME WORTH FIGHTING FOR–by Natasha Florentino (director, producer, and co-director of photography), Oliver Metzler (co-director of photography), and Jason Alarcòn (editor)–exposes a flawed political process that prioritizes private developers over the preservation of public housing while dismissing calls for transparency. Determined to defend their community from demolitions, residents organize to resist a profit-driven plan aimed at privatizing public housing. Run Time: 40 min.
The event is free and open to the public. Light bites and refreshments will be served. Space is limited; advance registration is required below:
