SUMMARY:Third Thursdays for Housing Justice - "The Pruitt-Igoe Myth"
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 17\, 2026 | 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM | East Side Freedom Library \n\n\nThe Pruitt-Igoe Myth\nAnother part of our Reel Stories series\, we will hold another film and discussion\, this time around the Pruitt-Igoe public housing complex in St Louis. The complex gained an infamous reputation and became a cautionary tale around public housing\, but like many things\, the true story is more complicated. \nThe term\, “Public Housing\,” conjures many different images for people. Many people associate public housing with rundown properties that are cold and uninviting. This was the reputation the Pruitt-Igoe property is St Louis. However\, when examined more closely the story is far more complicated. Join us and public housing residents from the Twin Cities to talk about what public housing really means and how we can change the narrative for the better. \nWe’d love to know you’re coming: register here if you’re comfortable doing so.\nIt’s never required\, and walk-ins are always welcome. \n\nThird Thursdays with the Housing Justice Program\nWhat is the Housing Justice Program?\nThe Housing Justice Program grew out of East Side Housing Justice\, a coalition that began in 2019 that drove discussion around housing issues. We are continuing that work by coalition building and creating events that help us rethink common narratives around housing \nWhat are Third Thursdays?\nAs part of our Housing Justice Program\, we are holding events on Third Thursdays to talk about housing in a variety of ways\, like documentary screenings and talks with local activists! We hope to spark invigorating discussion and build quality connections amongst our community. \nWhy you should come!\nCome through to learn and meet others who care about housing! We want people to carry lessons from these events beyond our four walls and make connections. Here at ESFL\, we believe solidarity is the way forward\, so come through\, make friends\, and start building power for change! \nWe’d love to know you’re coming: register here if you’re comfortable doing so.\nIt’s never required\, and walk-ins are always welcome. \nWant to learn more? Reach out to the Housing Justice team!\nlucid@eastsidefreedomlibrary.org\ndakota@eastsidefreedomlibrary.org \n  \n\n\n
