Squat Fundraiser at the Wilson St Park, Newtown. Join us for chai, food, squatumentary-documentary and squatting solidarity. The film that will be showing is 'Shelter'.

Shelter: a Squatumentary - 45 min. (2008) By Hannah E. Dobbz In economically turbulent times, rent and home-ownership have become unaffordable at best and impossible at worst. Thus, people all over the world continue a long tradition of reclaiming this basic human right by squatting. Shelter: A Squatumentary is a documentary film that explores the squatting movement in the East Bay from 2004 to 2007. We follow three examples of the struggle for housing in an unaffordable market such as that of the San Francisco Bay Area. Hellarity House, Banana House, and Power Machine are stories of squatters who have found one tentative solution to the ongoing housing crisis.

For anyone who is interesting in/in solidarity with/currently squatting.
