People Power Hour brought to you by KC Tenants
KC Tenants Power Hour will host a rotation of speakers featuring members and leaders from KC Tenants and other tenant unions across the country to analyze, inform, and inspire listeners about the power of tenant unions in America. Every episode will showcase a different lesson about tenant unions and America's problematic history with housing by providing in-depth historical analysis, testimonials and stories from leaders who organized in their communities, and collectively brainstorming a vision for a better world where housing is treated as a human right.
What is language justice? Language justice is an evolving framework based on the notion of respecting every individual’s fundamental language rights—to be able to communicate, understand, and be understood in the language in which they prefer and feel most articulate and powerful. The City Government of Kansas City, Missouri does not have a comprehensive language access program, and as a result, city residents who do not speak English do not have access to vital city services nor are they able to participate in our city’s democratic processes.
