Brian GIlmore and I are making our documentary, Law, Housing, and Social Justice, available to the public. Please share it! Brian and I would love to do a Q&A if you’re in the DMV and want to host a screening.

Here’s the synopsis:

This documentary follows Brian Gilmore, an experienced public interest attorney, as he guides college students through a seminar on “Land, Shelter, and Social Justice.” The film delves into America’s pressing affordable housing crisis, tracing its historical roots and societal impact. Chapters explore rental housing, housing inequality, and public housing, augmented by field trips and real-life examples. The documentary includes perspectives from passionate housing advocates, whose personal experiences of homelessness and living in public housing fuel their commitment. The film emphasizes the necessity of a human right to housing, drawing inspiration from global struggles. The film concludes with student-driven discussions on solutions and a call to action for a more equitable housing system.
