About this episode
From November of 2019 to January of 2020, two Black mothers occupied a vacant West Oakland property without permission from the company that owned the house, Southern California-based Wedgewood Properties. Since then — after a lot of public pressure — Wedgewood agreed to let them stay. The Oakland Community Land Trust will purchase the home and least it back to the moms. Today, we're revisiting the moral argument behind Moms 4 Housing's activism: that housing is a human right. This episode originally aired on January 3, 2020. Learn more about your ad choices.
