Razing Liberty Square explores the impact of public housing loss, gentrification, big developers, and climate change on low-income neighborhoods in Miami. One community in particular grapples with these issues as powerful developers work to divert public funds into private hands.
In San Antonio, working-class neighborhoods face similar challenges. The Opportunity Homes initiative threatens to privatize the Alazán Courts, while local officials partner with wealthy developers to funnel public funds into stadiums, displacing hundreds of tenants.
Join housing activists from Miami and San Antonio for a crucial discussion on the housing crisis following the screening and moderated by Councilwoman Teri Castillo.
Panelists:
Kayla Miranda | Housing Justice Organizer
Trenise Bryant | Resident, Liberty Square (Miami)
Aaron McKinney | Developer in Razing Liberty Square
Phillip Adcock | Resident, Soap Factory Apartments
