Episode 1: Migrants in Berlin join Deutsche Wohnen & Co Enteignen's housing rights campaign

In this episode, we interviewed Deutsche Wohnen & Co Enteignen, a Berlin-based grassroots initiative aiming at expropriating large housing corporations in order to give all Berliners access to fair housing. Tune in and find out how the current housing crisis has particularly affected vulnerable and migrant populations in Berlin and Germany. Rosa Silva joins Marie-Therese Helmschmied and tells us how the campaign started, its different demands and next steps, including the soon-to-come referendum.
