PODER

In the summer of 2018 the PODER! and CPA (Chinese Progressive Association) Summer youth collaboration known as Common Roots organized a rally opposing the reconfiguration of a 100% affordable housing development that would have added a large 100% market rate housing development in a predominantly working poor-class, immigrant, neighborhood. A month after the demonstration, which contributed to an ongoing community campaign for accountability for the reconfiguration, the market rate development fell through.
