AirGo's so excited to be back in full effect and regular flow of conversations reshaping culture for the more liberatory and creative! With the Chicago municipal election coming up on 3/19 (early voting is open now!), we're starting off with a call to Bring Chicago Home, a referendum aiming to restructure the Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT), a one-time tax on properties when they are sold to create a substantial and legally dedicated revenue stream to provide permanent affordable housing for people experiencing homelessness. Campaign organizers Brian Rodgers and Tynetta Hill-Muhammad break down how their personal experiences brought them to the campaign, how housing justice is at the nexus of all issues, and how to combat the misinformation around BCH created by the real estate lobby.
