<h2>Join The Tenant Class Study Group!</h2>Join us for donuts, coffee, and critical conversation with Dr. Adra Raine as we prepare for The Tenant Class author Ricardo Tranjan’s March 3 visit with the Lab. Through selected readings, reflection, and discussion, we’ll explore key ideas from The Tenant Class, including narratives, class struggle, housing as a political issue, and the history of tenant organizing in Canada. We’ll also generate questions for Tranjan and local organizers.Optional readings: • Excerpt from The Tenant Class, “Chapter Two: Myths About the Tenant Class” • Interview with Ricardo Tranjan (CCPA): <a href="https://share.google/1uWSTGz9afHXXFkGk" title="https://share.google/1uWSTGz9afHXXFkGk" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://share.google/1uWSTGz9afHXXFkGk</a>Adra is an educator, writer, scholar, parent, and organizer whose work focuses on examining power structures, imagining alternatives, and supporting people of all ages in bringing their knowledge and experiences into collaborative learning and action.
