Renter's Cinema at Atwood Music Hall, showing Priced Out (2017) and Not a Penny on the Rents (1969), with a panel discussion
Date: October 21st
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Atwood Music Hall
Two films highlight both the global housing crisis and historic tenant organizing. We’d love to have someone from your organization join a post-film panel with local tenants and community members. We are inviting a small group of organizers rooted in militant cultural organizing, restorative healing, and alternative housing models to respond to the film.
Not a Penny on the Rents (1969, 22 min) is a fiery agitprop documentary that captures the struggles of London’s council tenants in 1968 as they organize rent strikes and confront the Greater London Council, the government, and the press in a fight against proposed rent increases.
Priced Out (2017, 62 min) is a heartbreaking film about the history of housing discrimination in the nation’s whitest city (Portland, Oregon).
