This is a doozy of a topic. When we have the conversation about providing and creating affordable housing, we must not leave out of the conversation the need to preserve affordable housing that already exists. It's a problem not only here in Michigan and the Great Lakes Basin Region, but across the United States during end stage capitalism. What you are about to learn is going to make you pretty angry, if you're someone who cares about anyone outside of the 1%. You're also going to learn that it affects each and every one of us, regardless of whether you reside in a mobile home park or not. We are joined in this podcast by Paul Tarranova, Midwest Community Organizer for MHAction, and two resident organizers of two different mobile home parks in Michigan, Theo Gantos and Pamela Maxey. Welcome to the conversation.
