We are doing a "Slam Eviction Open Mic" to raise awareness about the eviction crisis in Detroit and how we can bring this systemic injustice to an end. Nearly 25,000 Detroit families faced eviction last year, and eviction court orders have increased by 136% this year, with single Black mothers being evicted more than anyone else.
This event was inspired by and created with our young leaders! Detroit's youth, young adults, and artists are an essential and pivotal part of the movement for housing justice!
Please come on out and support!
There will be free food, giveaways, & open mic!
Please let us know you're coming on Facebook or by registering here!
Thank you, and see you soon!
Protest Slumlord Munoz Realty
Munoz Realty is a slumlord that preys on low-income Detroiters with substandard rental units that are often times not registered with the City of Detroit and lacking in Certificates of Compliance.
Munoz Realty has allegedly perpetrated numerous unlawful and abusive landlord practices including using threats of eviction to intimidate tenants who protest living conditions and a massive failure to provide basic housing maintenance on owned and managed properties.
Join us at 1438 Michigan Ave, Detroit, MI 48216 to protest with us!
