BOOK TALK: SQUATTING LONDON with Samuel Burgum

Housmans is very excited to welcome Samuel Burgum to talk about his vital new book about a facinating, and much neglected, part of our urban history. Squatting London: The Politics of Property is an account of the real lives of the city’s squatters: their ambitions and struggles. Squatting is a challenge to the logic of property which underpins the city. By finding refuge, staying put, creating spaces and participating in counter-cultures, squats are political acts. They sit in direct opposition to the speculation, gentrification and regeneration that controls London today. Bookings: https://tinyurl.com/ypxm8ksh [1]
