Generation Priced Out: Who Gets to Live in the New Urban America
December 4, 2018 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeRandy Shaw’s Generation Priced Out (University of California) is a call to action on one of the most talked-about issues of our time: how skyrocketing rents and home values are pricing the working and middle classes out of urban America. Shaw tells the powerful stories of tenants, politicians, homeowner groups, developers, and activists in over a dozen cities impacted by the national housing crisis. From San Francisco to New York, Seattle to Denver, and Los Angeles to Austin, Generation Priced Out challenges progressive cities to reverse rising economic and racial inequality.
