It’s Going Down speaks with three representatives of the Autonomous Tenants Union Network, which includes representatives of Tenant and Neighborhood Councils (TANC) in Oakland, California, the Los Angeles Tenants Union, and the Richmond Tenants Union in Richmond, Virginia. We speak on the growing autonomous tenants movement, organizing and resisting eviction during COVID-19, the failures and successes of the wave of rent strikes that kick off this spring, and how to build mass tenant power in the face of increasing crisis.
