In "Convivir, a Synonym for Commune?" my latest on @journalspectre.bsky.social I wrote about @city.bsky.social & Leonardo Vilchis's Abolish Rent & Kristin Ross's The Commune Form, starting from a revived communist theme via @tenantpower.bsky.social—the abolition of the separation of town and country

Most of the first paragraph of the essay linked in the next post, with the quote "in twenty years..." highlighted

We disrupted their meeting in January, we pushed for a month, today we waited six hours to give public comment, and then finally WE WON eviction protections for all tenants in LA County who were economically affected by the fires!

L.A. Tenants Union @latenantsunion.bsky.social · Feb 17

More than a month into the fires, LA County is finally voting on some eviction protections. Join us on Tuesday at 500 W Temple at noon and/or submit public comment and send emails today!

Each month we host a session for tenant organizers who are trying to strengthen their unions. It's best when people commit to coming over months and participate as they experiment in their groups - not intended for people who haven't yet started organizing. Join us on Sunday, March 2!
