Essential read from @just_shelter
@just_shelter @SenadoraJulie @msudenver @justshelter’s books transformed our understanding of extreme poverty and economic exploitation. At CEDP, our clients have pushed us to think more broadly about the intersectionality of housing and economic instability. We are thrilled to have him with us here today.
I am still processing yesterday’s conversation — it was so, so powerful. I am grateful to @CoEvictionDef and @just_shelter for their work, and proud of my community for all the ways we continue to organize, build, dream, and fight. #coleg #copolitics
Thanks to everyone who came to our event with @just_shelter and @SenadoraJulie at @msudenver yesterday! We had a great turnout and an important discussion about what drives poverty in our communities and how we can help combat it.
@jrf_uk @YorkFestofIdeas @just_shelter you may be interested. It reminds me of the talk you gave @trustforlondon @ToynbeeHall
Notice a theme in my to-read pile? Thanks to @MalcolmBFoley for the Morrison recommendation, some thoughtful friends for the @just_shelter books, and Al Tizon for writing what is sure to be another provocative nudge to follow Jesus more closely.

Really need to pick this book up as @just_shelter's description of our segregationist housing policy as an engine that produces poverty is spot on.
