Abstract

The article discusses a tenant organization's efforts to resist unfair evictions and poor living conditions. Topics include the rise of renoviction tactics, the personal story of a tenant forced out under pressure, and the lessons learned by the ACORN organization in fighting for better housing policies. The article outlines how these experiences led to a five-year campaign for new local policies in Hamilton to address tenant displacement.
