In the early 2010s, San Francisco experienced a tech boom that created both great wealth and great inequality. The city became known for runaway gentrification, a major housing crisis, and an "eviction epidemic" of long-term tenants. Yet there was also an inspiring housing justice movement. This book documents this moment. In this book event we will discuss the powerful anti-eviction movement of the 2010s and its connections to housing struggles and justice today.
