The Slumlord Factory: and other essays on neoliberalism, corptocracy, corporate welfare, gentrification, and homelessness.

Cities are rapidly changing policies and laws to enable real estate developers access into communities that have been neglected for generations. These policies speed up displacement, resulting in homelessness and a reduction in life expectancy. As neighbors vanish and the community grapples with displacement, the culprit is clear - unchecked development. Fighting for justice, residents turn to the government for help, only to face roadblocks at every turn. Yet, through resilience and unity, they push forward in the battle against homelessness. From the author of Steal the Street (2022), Dr. Mark delivers sharp, thought-provoking articles that shed light on the complex realities of housing and social change - challenging misconceptions and inspiring action. The Slumlord Factory contains dozens of short essays, many of which were first released through Cincinnati's Streetvibes newspaper - a street paper that people distribute as an alternative to panhandling.
