The Right to the City (28 min)

We are thrilled to present to you a 3-part DVD on the Right to the City (RTTC) alliance in New York City, which is fighting for a just, healthy, affordable and equitable city. In a city run by moneyed interests, a united front is needed to win real and lasting change for the majority of New Yorkers.

About this documentary:

Connecting yesterdays suburban sprawl to todays condo gluts and Robert Moses style development with the growing movement taking back the city, this irreverent film brings it all together with the analysis of scholar David Harvey.
