I am a reader in this campaign, & will be reading @leilanifarha.bsky.social’s HOUSING INC. Will you sponsor me? Fantastic read that covers the personal experience of *home*—currently endangered b/c of the industrial complex of corporatism, rentier capital, and privatization. All proceeds to CPI 🧡🧡🧡
