Representative Marcy Kaptur
and economist
Dean Baker discuss the housing crisis in this special presentation of
“Fighting
For Our Homes.”

Marcy Kaptur, the Democratic representative from Toledo, made waves when
she suggested on the floor of the House that Americans facing eviction
should stay in their homes and fight the foreclosure proceedings. The
bold ideas of Kaptur and Dean Baker, from the Center for Economic and Policy
Research
, have got a lot of press
and are being put into action around the country by ACORN. Brave New
Films discusses with them the run up to the housing crisis and the future
of the foreclosure fight.

From Minneapolis to Venezuela, from Gaza to Washington, DC, this is a time of staggering chaos, cruelty, and violence. 

Unlike other publications that parrot the views of authoritarians, billionaires, and corporations, The Nation publishes stories that hold the powerful to account and center the communities too often denied a voice in the national media—stories like the one you’ve just read.

Each day, our journalism cuts through lies and distortions, contextualizes the developments reshaping politics around the globe, and advances progressive ideas that oxygenate our movements and instigate change in the halls of power.
