The Take Back the Land Movement: Realizing the Human Right to Housing in the US

The Take Back the Land Movement (TBLM) is a national initiative launched by the Land and Housing Action Group (LHAG). The Land and Housing Action group is an affiliated body of the US Human Rights Network (USHRN). The objective of the Take Back Land Movement is to realize the human right to adequate housing in the US by building and inspiring a mass direction action movement that situates decision making power directly in the hands of impacted families and communities, particularly those in Indigenous, Black, and Latino communities. This workshop will explore the ways social justice activists and organizations can get involved and help build this critical movement.
