Fellow millennials, what are we going to do about the housing crisis?

From collective action and changing policy to quietly disposing of your landed boomer parents, these angry millennial writers have a host of pathways to get a generation of people out of sharehouses once and for all. Academic and writer Amy Thunig-McGregor (Tell Me Again), activist Jack Toohey (Better Things Are Possible) and poet and critic Fiona Wright (Kill Your Boomers) discuss one of the defining crises of our time and whether there is hope for housing stability and equity in our lifetime.

Commiserate with Amy, Jack and Fiona in conversation with journalist and writer Patrick Lenton.
